About Me

Current Mission

Vamos viendo que propone el dia.

Hello World

I'm an argentinean Oncology Fellow; living in Buenos Aires. I'm very easy going, and I can have fun in pretty much any context. I really liked being on the move and getting to know new people

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing provides an interesting new way of travelling, not only living in hostels but being able to see how's life in different places, from a local's point of view.
While living in hostels you get to meet people from all around the world, except from the place you are at.

Interests

Medicine is a big part of my life, and wherever I go, I try to approach the local health services to see how they work and if possible to give a hand with whatever I can, during the time I'm there.
I enjoy going out for a run and rock climbing (I found it to be a great way of discovering places). I also like cooking (and I'm willing to prove it). And in all this time away from home, reading has been a great companion.
