Overview
About Me
Hello! My name is Juan ¡Mucho gusto!
I'm an argentinian Sociology and Yoga teacher that recently came back to Buenos Aires (my hometown) after almost 18 months of traveling around Australia, Indonesia, Thailand and India.
After being away for so long I decided to came back to my country because I really missed my family, friends and argentinian culture but the travel bug is still inside me so I decided to give back a little bit of the amaizing hospitallity that I recived when I was traveling. Luckly I'm back on my high school teaching job and also running a yoga teaching proyect that is just starting but makes me really happy.
I also like to write. Inspired by the Jack Kerouac's book "On the road" I decided to follow my dream of traveling and writing about it. I write poems, short stories and completing my travel journal. I can't deny that I´m an ashtangui yogui that metitates and take care of his body but I also like to dance and have fun with my friends in bars and cultural centers around the city (balance is the key of a healty lifestyle in my opinion :)
Random information about me

-I really like sports and being outdoors
-I enyoy my quiet times and like to read, watch movies, netflix shows or some sports.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
