Hey friends!

My name is José Alvarez (alias: Joe Lemat). I was born in Venezuela, but when I was 7 years old, we moved with my family to Chile, and then after 25 years living in Chile, I decided to moved to Europe.

My life is dedicated to graphic design and art. I work with collage, painting, illustrations, theater and pantomime theater. I was really active in Chile. I run my own puppet and pantomime company, we played a lot of performances.

Last year I was invited to come to Poland for a theater festival called POLSKA NEW THEATER. I t was my second time in Poland, and I decided to stay here. So, I moved to Gdansk, north of Poland. I`m living here since 8 months but with my girlfriend, Sonia, we decied to travel for few months.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I truly believe that the best way to know about new cities and country is to meet local people. That`s why I take part of Couchsurfing. i want to meet local, talk with them and share experiences about different cultures and countries.
