Hey, my name is Juan! I was born in a capital town in the middle of Argentina. Left my hometown to study in La Plata, near to Buenos Aires.
I'm a really energetic guy that loves sports; team sports and self training. I also like watching all kind of sports! Big fan of football and rugby.

I define myself as a an easygoing person. Really open to new things, and from time to time I like stopping myself to figure out what is going on around haha.
People say i'm funny but most of the times my jokes are really bad ones, so don't expect much..
After some time meeting new people from different places I discovered that even though you have small things in common with someone, there is always something to talk about.

I love what I study, so everything related to my carrier is an interesting thing to me.

Most of all; I'm curious, and from time to time I like having those days when you do NOTHING!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CouchSurfing appeared to me as a website name to "free sleeping". After I met some 'always travelling' friends living in Montpellier they showed me the real idea behind CS and I loved it.
When you live it from the inside, you realize that it is not just "sleeping for free"; is discovering how a completely different person from a really different place lives, enjoys and tells jokes!
As someone from another continent, being in Europe and meeting locals gives you a complete perspective about culture, and traditions..

What I Can Share with Hosts

Mate! For sure that I can share 'Mate' with you. It's a traditional drink/tea from Argentina, with a particular ritual to drink it.

I love cooking, so if you give me the chance, I will cook something for you. Do not expect gourmet of course.. haha.

Beer or Wine, is always a nice thing to share. Salud!
