Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I really enjoy to travel and share with new people, exploring different places, landscapes and immerse myself into the cities guided by the experience of locals. Since I started this adventure of living outside Chile I would like to meet persons of different cultures and countries :) I think is a good opportunity to meet nice persons, exchange stories, share moments/knowledge or just go to hangout! :)

Music, Movies, and Books
I usually listen almost all kinds of music, most common classic rock, cumbia, trance, etc... Every moment has its own music, sometimes for study, relax, dance or just for joy.
About movies, I prefer movies which mixture History, adventure or based in real life events, but I like horror and stupid movies too. I avoid romantic movies, but who could not like "Legends of the Fall"???
Literature: I like adventure, history and science topics (much better if the three last are mixed)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Some years ago (when I was still young... and after watching "Into the Wild") I rode my bicycle alone along the ca. 400 km of the northern part of the Carretera Austral, in the Chilean Patagonia (between Chaitén and Coyhaique). It was a speechless experience, enjoying the nature and intact landscapes (mighty rivers, never-ending lakes, hanging glaciers), feeling the fury of the weather, the peaceful moments and the hospitality of the people, many of them descendants of the first settlers in this isolated area.
Teach, Learn, Share
Maybe this sounds "cliché", but I try lo learn something new everyday. At the moment, usually a new German word.
What I Can Share with Hosts
We can practice languages, do sports, cooking or just go for a tour, or grab a coffee/beer (or both) while enjoying the Old Town (Altstadt, in Heidelberg).
As a guest, I can help with the home duties, cook or whatever :) I am not the classic houseplant guest :P
