Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My mission is to find that amazing people that makes you laugh till your abdomen hurts, and never lie to others nor myself in the process
ABOUT ME
I don't believe people can write all about themselves in just a few lines, how could we if we change all the time, and we are trying to find ourselves in every new relationship along the way.
What do I do? I do many things, I have activated the YES MODE on me, everything that pops up and seems fun I do, that includes learning chinese, dancing salsa, tango, belly dance, even being a comedian in a theater show.
But what I'm committed to do for life and I been doing since more than 10 years is practicing Bujinkan Ninjutsu, an ancient martial art, which now I teach to small community of young kids and adults in Dubai, you can find our web site here www.bujinkan.ae
Another thing that captured my heart and I practice often is meditation and I recommend it for you if you are reading this.
I love to eat healthy as then I feel full of energy and can smile and enjoy 100% everything I do.
But what I most like to do, is to meet people, to travel, having that unique chance to meet that old lady that cook an amazing banitza nobody else in earth can do, or that nice kid that is amazed watching the clouds, teaching you what is important in life.
But all of the text above is not me, is just a brief summary in the back of a book, the book of my life, which I'm writing and I will finish that one day, but you can join me, read it and even be part of it if you want while is happening in real life :)
PHILOSOPHY
I have all the Christian Catholic background but I didn't find any of the critical answers of life there, so I started studying about it through reading and mostly through connecting with people from other religions, so far I do align my principles more to Buddhism or Taoism that other religions. But if we leave a side for a second this topic, I believe there is no certainty about anything in life, even the oldest religions and thinkers base their understanding on assumptions and interpretations of old books or testaments, so in order to guide my life onto a way of life I do believe that you should follow your heart, your heart will tell you what is right and what is wrong in a new world full of opportunities and challenges never previously imagined, only you have to live this life you are on right now, so you better enjoy it to the fullest.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I host and I visit, so far is good for a start :), I want to travel more now that I'm in Middle East, in America is more difficult to travel due the distances, and here everything is closer and available ... and I find a nice people that open his/her doors to this argentinean, I will love to visit his/her city ... and viceversa, if someone wants to visit the country where I'm right now (Dubai the last 3 years)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have hosted so far around 6 people from different countries including New Zealand, USA, China and Nepal, everybody is welcomed as long as you bring your smile with you.
So far I haven't stayed at anyones place as most of the times I travel abroad I go to visit friends, family or we are heavily on the move and getting a host requires planning and time to be spent with your host
But you never know, maybe you are reading this because I just asked to host me too, if that's the case please do !! .. :D
Interests
Food, Violin, Music, Books (the good ones), Movies (the bad ones), communities, studies, and of course my two great commitments in life, Bujinkan Ninjutsu and Meditation. I also do enjoy playing Role Playing games with my friends when I visit them back in Argentina every year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The alive volcano in Hawaii, watching the lava flows and the massive clouds is something really touch your fibers, and make you think about how brief we are.
... I cannot keep out this will inside of me of watching the power of the nature and feeling so small and powerful at the same time.
My dream is to see a tornado in real life
But even saying that, every small thing can be just amazing, from and ancient woman smile to the elegant dancing of streets in Goa running a motorcycle for first time ... life is amazing if you know how to find your way through its amazedness
Teach, Learn, Share
I love this idea !, I was thinking about a site that can help mentors and mentees to find each other, but to teach not about a single science but about life !
I believe in this and you have my full support !
------------------------------
What can I teach? tango, singing or martial arts ... to cook argentinean food, to meditate, everything I know about computers? some massage techniques I have discovered on my own
... I been studying many things since open my eyes to this world, I'm sure you will win something in the share
