Hello! I'm Javier Ortiz Tacchi, currently studying Industrial Engineering in Santiago, Chile, and just finished an exchange period in Espoo, Finland.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

After finishing my exchange period in Finland, and as this is my first time in Europe, I wanted to take advantage of this chance of being here and start to travel around the old continent!

Música, películas y libros

My favorite books are The Brothers Karamázov, Rayuela (Julio Cortázar), El Túnel (Ernesto Sábato). Now I'm more interested in russian literature!

My favorite music bands are Pink Floyd, Radiohead, David Bowie, Gotan Project, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, The Holydrug Couple.

I'm pretty open to any kind of music! So if you have a suggestion, I invite the beers and let's listen!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Well, I think amazing things are very subjective. But in my point of view, i've done a lot, and this kind of stories are better told face to face!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach you some Spanish, but not any Spanish... is the wonderful and mysterious chilean Spanish. If you can understand the Spanish of a chilean, you can understand any Spanish in the world!

Also I know a magic trick with cards!! haha i can teach you that, and give you some basic guitar lessons :)

I would really love to learn about the "hidden" places in each city, which are emblems and not that touristic.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Good food,and a good glass of beer with a good conversation!
