Hello Couchsurfers! I'm Juan Manuel Roggia, I am from Argentina. I lived in Buenos Aires.
I am currently an entrepreneur. I have a digital marketing agency, a communication and content production agency, and I started an event production agency.
My dream is to develop a full production and experiential company and to be able to produce festivals and artistic events such as music festivals or fashion weeks.

My main hobbies are music and film. I am currently learning guitar and singing, that it was something that somehow I never learned. I love photography and film so much that I directed and produced some music videos for some of my music friends as of hobby; even though it is not my main business, I truly enjoy it and I would love to film more music videos or even a movie.
With photography, I enjoy nature photography and fashion photography.

In the past, I lived in United States for almost 6 years. I went with a tennis scholarship, finished college with a marketing degree, and later I worked in a music production company. Before my visa expires, I did a road trip across the States for three months and it was an amazing experience!! It was my first real time traveling and getting to know people and places very often. I did 26 States, and I have to admit that California stole my heart (I am sorry east coast lovers!). If I could pick a place to live, it would be either San Francisco or LA.

I really enjoy sports. I not only play tennis, I also play soccer, golf and I do jiu jitsu. If I have to pick a sport to play with friends, it is definitely soccer; I tend to get really competitive with individual sports :p

I love hiking and outdoors. Since I was a kid I loved exploring and going for the unknown. One of my dreams is to do some extreme sports, like motocross, rally and skydiving! its in my bucket list and if a fellow couchsurfing there does one of these, please let me know!!!! You would be rewarded with the best kitten and puppy memes.

During weekends, I am really down for drinks at bars. Favorite drinks: whiskey and coke, gin tonic , IPA beer. I do love to go dancing at clubs ( I am latin, of course I love dancing!) but I try to keep it varied; I don't like to go to the same place or dance the same music the whole time. If one of you dare me to a dance off, I warn you, you WILL win, but my dance will stick in your mind forever.

I am super chill and open minded. If you wanna know something else, please let me know. Strike me with your best question, and if the answer is worth it, I will put it in my profile (if you question is going to be "puppy or kittens", the answer is both and you better send me a picture of your beautiful pet).

Check my Instagram @juanmaroggia if you wanna see a little bit more about me :)

Hope to get to know you!

Juanma!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Every person has a unique story, that is freaking awesome.
It definitely helps me to be more open minded, but it also helps me to think outside of the box as well.

I hope that one day I am able to travel more, and I hope to do it with amazing people and I know Coachsurfing is the place to find that kind of people.

Interests

Photography: mostly nature and fashion, but I am definitely down to go shooting all around.
Film: I love video production. I have produced and directed music videos for friends. I would really love to have the chance to be involved in a movie production, just for the funzzies.
Sports: tennis, soccer, golf, martial arts, they are all awesome. It helps to really anxiety and it you get to hang out with cool people; what else can you ask!
Music: I am learning guitar and singing. Hopefully I will learn piano one day.

Things that I would love to do one day:
Extreme sports: such as motocross, rally or skydiving. Never done it, but I would freaking love to do it!! Haven't had the chance yet and I haven't met someone who does any of those. Hopefully a living couchsurfing soul will help me fulfill my dream.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A roadtrip across America for 3 months. I just packed my car and left withouth plans. See where the road takes me. It was awesome! I met so many people and so many places. I highly recommend doing it.
