About Me

I describe myself like a easy going guy, very happy and active person. I can be very funny and warm person if you get to know me well. I really love sports, either playing or watching. Also I like to travel a lot; I began to travel outside Chile when at the age of 19, when i went with my best friends to the mountains of California to get our ski instructor license. I’ve gone back two years in a row because I fall in love whit the place. Now I'm studying economics in Spain for 6 months and I'm trying to take advantage that I'm here to travel through Europe how many times i possibly can.
I’m very open mind and I like a lot to get to know people of different parts of the world.
Philosophy:
I thing that happiness is the goal of life. I'm constantly trying to be comfortable with my life and the people who is around me. Family and friends are the more important thing in life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am relatively new in couchsurfing. I create a profile a few years ago to see the possibility of receiving people in my house. Now that I’m traveling in Europe I find it a great mechanism to visit many places, meet different cultures, different human beings and the stories they have. In addition, give me the possibility to create new friendships whit people who are planning to travel to Chile at some point in their lives; you have the doors of my apartment open whenever you need it. Also, we all know that when we are travelling money is the most precious thing, so saving me the money of paying a hostel is very nice :).
