Hi! I'm Juan, I'm 23 years old, I grew up in Buenos Aires and I've always loved to travel. I've been working all over the av industry for about 8 years studying on the side and I'm really passionate about both filmmaking and music (mostly listening to it, the playing part got stuck midway through).
Recently my family moved to the States so I've spent the last few months in Mountain View, California helping them get all set up, but now I'm in Europe traveling while I write my first feature screenplay.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Would love to connect with people all over the world. I'm a big fan of this kind of experiences and I think it's much more exciting and fulfilling than just renting places everywhere you go.

Interests

Love seeing live gigs anywhere at any time.
Really passionate about a couple sports teams, but love sports in general.
I enjoy movies a filmmaker probably should not enjoy.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music, but everything gets better when you mix it with a little bit of rock! Blues, jazz, ska, reggae, balkan, funk, soul, you name it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Alongside a friend, I've started and ran a small production company in Buenos Aires for almost 4 years now. We've already produced over 15+ shorts (2 of them directed by me), multiple music videos and other av formats and, to top it all off, we got our first 3 co-produced features in the last year or so, participating in some of the world's greatest film festivals with our work.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm open to sharing everything I know about the media industry and specifically filmmaking, producing and all sorts of related topics. I'm a big believer in "giving back" the same way you learnt or got something, so I'm trying to put that to practice.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As an Argentinian, I'll probably have some mate with me so that's always an exciting thing to share.
I'll be happy and humbled to be able to share some of my work all over the globe.
