I'm Joaquín Ortega from Rosario, a small city in Argentina but I live in France, now working and studying in the Institut supérieur des arts de Toulouse.
I play electric guitar, mostly free jazz and contemporary music using also electronics. Now I play live music for theater and I play solo and in some groups.
Funny and bad dancer, talkative, coffee lover.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing to hopefully spend time with people who are passionate about their city and what they do, and are willing to share that passion with me. I want to see the world through the eyes of different individuals and to experience countries with a local's aid.

Interests

In July I'm going to be touring in Germany, Belgium, France and Spain with a trio from Argentina.
