About Me

I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I'm a DJ, music producer and programmer. I studied Sound Engineering and Music Production but then I went more to the Programming side.
I also work as a programmer (more specifically as a database administrator). I'm currently learning about cyber security and back end programming.
Last year I learned a lot about blockchain and cryptocurrencies, I even took a course in Solidity (blockchain programming language).
I like meeting new places and countries, interesting people, and having a good time (it can be a chill dinner, or even a party :D ).
I have a vinyl collection, so I like to meet new record stores from different places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started CouchSurfing in 2017 during a trip to Brazil, and I am reactivating it now (2022) since I have a trip planned to the United States.
My idea is to meet people who are interested in exchanging cultural knowledge, skills, or just meeting interesting people.

Interests

Todo lo relacionado con nuevas experiencias, sea con gente, paisajes, culturas, artes de todo tipo , resumiendo en una palabra vivir

  • music
  • programming
  • new friends
  • trips
  • new places

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: It is a very difficult question for a music lover, I like different genres and styles, mostly from the 60s to the 90s.
Among many:
-Electronic (house, techno, electro, breaks, minimal, uk tech house, acid house, ghetto, deep house, new beat)
-Rock (Progressive, Psychedelic, Jazz-Fusion, Blues)
-Brazilian Music (Samba, Bossa Nova, MPB)
-Hip Hop (Jazzy and Funky mostly)
-Funk, Disco, Jazz, Reggae and many many more.

Movies and series: Psychological thriller is what I like the most. (I'm rewatching Twin Peaks right now and finishing The Wire)
I also really like the wacky comedy style like Tim and Eric, The Eric Andre Show and everything that Abso-Lutely produces.

Books: My last book read was "The Diamond of Effectiveness" by Martin Shaw.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a backpacking trip with two friends along the coast of Brazil for 3 months. I met a lot of interesting people and learned about the culture of that country.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I can teach:
Programming, Spanish, djing

What I want to learn:
New cultures, more programming, and I would like to learn about video editing.

What I can share:
My tastes about music and art, good times, and what we usually eat in my hometown, Buenos Aires.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I understand what it's like to open the door of your home to a stranger, so you can expect trust, security, cooperation in daily chores, and full retribution from me. I love music and I'm interested in what people like, so we can talk for hours about music.
I can also help with whatever the host needs.
