About Me

Hi!
I'm an argentinian girl living in Malaga, Spain!

In 2016 I lived in Australia and then New Zealand living a Working Holiday experience (18 months in total) and then I travelled around South East Asia. That experience definetly change my life, I came back to Argentina to study and develop my professional career as a marketer and now, after almost 5 years, I am ready to travel the world again!

Whay can I say about me?? Well...I am very enthusiastic about life. I LOVE making people laugh and having good times. I also enjoy a lot being alone and read or learn new skills. I think I am the kind of person that you can talk about superficial things and the same time have serious conversations about everything (from what happened with justin bieber to debate history, politics and philosophy o r whatever).

I am also an spiritual person, I truly belive in karma and that energies rules the world. Everythinng happen for a reason and everyday there is a learning. I always try to not judge and be in a balance with myself and with the Universe.

My profession is very important to me, my dream is to work and travel as a digital nomad building and developing brands with purpose. I´ve been preparing my self for the last 5 years in marketing and communication and this trip to Europe is the next step to built up my own agencie, so I am really excited about that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is the best way to travel, because brings you the opportunity to share with local people and get to know a place in a totally different way than as a tourist.
I also believe that you can learn from everyone you meet and share this experience with strangers is a wonderful exchange!
For the moment, I can't host anybody because I'm travelling, but as a guest I can sleep on the floor, on a bed, on a coach and don't really care! I'm already grateful for the opportunity you can give me :)

Interests

During this year travelling, my interests changed a little bit. In Australia I used to enjoy surfing (or at least trying it haha) , taking pictures, writing a lot. Of course, going for some beers is something that never changes! In Argentina, living in one place, I enjoyed going out with my partner and having good times with friends, reading, running and enjoying nature.
Other random interests: reading books ( mostly spiritual ones, that open my mind) and magazines; watching series);outdoor activities; animal lover ; vegetarian food (although I'm not 100% vegetarian I love it); budhist culture (I'm always trying to learn more about it); cannabis culture and women & LGBT rights.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help you with marketing and communication staff, like social media and design, so if you have an own project I love giving advice and think about different strategies to scale up your business.
Also, I can share a little bit of photography and travel tips, I can teach you spanish and help you with whatever you need!

What I Can Share with Hosts

My partner and I can cook the best home made food you´ve ever tried for sure! We are a very good team for that and she is a professional chef (you´ll love her ;) ). Also, we can have a great time chating and enjoying a drink. We can share a lot about argentinian and south american culture, teach you spanish and drink mate! (kind of a te beverage that we drink all the time)
