About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling as much as I can to discover the world beyond my everyday reality!

ABOUT ME

I am an industrial designer from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
I am a passionate, creative and sensitive girl, always willing to learn something new. I like to feel adrenaline going through my veins!
I have recently done a one year Work and holidays visa in Australia where I met my great friend Paulina and we explored Asia together!
Now back in Argentina I'm working as an English teacher and doing some freelance design work. Willing to learn and share with local people. My boyfriend Nacho and I are visiting Portugal next July.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is the way you look at it! I enjoy little things. My aim is to spend some time of each day doing things I enjoy, in the end, life is made of that, little moments. Sharing time with people I love is one of the most fulfilling things I can do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love meeting locals when I travel. I can't host anyone currently but would be interested in going out and sharing some time if you come to my city!

Interests

I love speaking and learning new languages, spending time with people from other backgrounds.
Sharing a meal while listening to a good band. Also really keen on cooking and tasting new meals and good wine!
Other things I enjoy are design, photography, pottery, sculpture, rollerskating (one of my passions) artistic activities in general.
Sports always welcome, I am a very active person. I really enjoy trekking in open areas, being in nature, feeling sunlight and the smell of recently cut grass. Getting lost in cities just to find spontaneous beauty.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love quiet music and I really enjoy listening to new bands. Some of my favorites are Norah Jones, Jack Johnson, The Beatles, Coldplay, Queen, Jamiroquai, Joaquin Sabina, Pearl Jam (Especially the IntoTheWild soundtrack by Eddie Vedder). I have recently discovered the french singer Zaz who I find greatly expressive. I also like jazz and bossa nova a lot. Some Argentinean bands I enjoy are Soda stereo, Sui Generis, and more!

Movies I have really enjoyed> The butterfly effect, Into the Wild, Inception, Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, Little miss sunshine, American beauty, The notebook, and the art, music and photography in most of Tim Burton films, especially his Charly and the chocolate factory.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Celebrating my birthday on a plane going to Madrid, everyone singing... that was fun and a bit ridiculous at the time!
Rollerskating a choreography on the Swan Lake melody, felt like flying.
Trekking in Petra, Jordan, walking through the ancient caves in the mountain.
Trekking in Mount Aconcagua, Mendoza, Argentina, amazing view, such pure air to breathe.
Running to the precipice while paragliding in Tucuman, Argentina.
Walking on a glacier in Calafate, with some friends, caring not to fall into a cave in the ice :S. Such a different sight, after we relaxed...
Sleeping in a creepy hostel in the old Jerusalem city, being able to see the most of it through the broken glass in the window. Unforgettable!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to prepare a mandarine cake that is so simple and tasty you will love it even more! In fact I would really enjoy to share a meal cooking traditional dishes from each others countries.
Learn about the city I visit, the traditions, the lifestyle, improve my languages and learn new ones. Anything related to creating stuff will be interesting to me.
