About Me

Soy nacido en Buenos Aires, estudié comercio exterior y fui comerciante en mi ciudad hasta el 2015, año en el que decidí comenzar a viajar, y afortunadamente sigo en la ruta.

Mente abierta, disfruto mucho el viajar, conocer nuevos lugares, nuevas culturas, y sobretodo nuevas personas!

I was born in Buenos Aires. I've studied international business and had my business till the year 2015, when I decided to start traveling, and luckily I'm still on the road!

Openminded, I enjoy traveling, getting to know new places, cultures, but above everything else new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Me hice miembro de esta comunidad porque en el 2015 comencé un viaje por latinoamerica y quería hacerlo de una forma distina a la que siempre lo había hecho antes. Quedandome con gente local, conociendo su cultura, sus comidas, compartiendo todo con ellos, y me pareció muy buena la idea de esta web.

Después de ya varios años, de haber sido hospedado por varias personas, y haber recibido en casa otras, puedo decir que fue una excelente idea y lo seguiré eligiendo.

I've joined this comunity because in the year 2015 I decided to start a trip throughout Latinamerica, and I wanted to do it, in a diferent way that I had always done before! Staying with local people, learning their culture, their cuisine, sharing everything, and I found this web as a very good way to do it.

Few years later, having been hosted for many people, and having had a few guests at home, I can say it was a great idea and I'll keep on doing it.

Interests

Viajar por todo el mundo, conocer gente y sus culturas. Y por otra parte quiero ayudar a quienes visiten mi pais a que lo conozcan bien, ofreciendoles alojamiento, compartir una comida, compartir consejos y experiencias, etc.

Algunos de mis pasatiempos son el yoga, navegar, esquiar, y bucear!

Tambien me gusta mucho cocinar... aprender sobre la cocina de otros lugares y poder hacer y compartir comidas tipicas de mi region. SOY VEGETARIANO.

I'd like to travel around the world, meet people and its culture. Also I'd like to help travelers who are visiting my hometown by offering a place to stay, share a meal, advice, experiences, etc.

Some hobbies: yoga, sailing, skiing, and scuba diving.

I also like cooking, try to learn typical recipes from places I'm visiting and share some Argentinian typical food. I'M VEGETARIAN by the way.

Una película que me encanta, relacionada con el sitio: "Into the wild".
Y otra, "el precio del mañana"

Y algunos de mis libros favoritos relacionados con el sitio son: FLASH (un francés que se va a dedo hasta Nepal, lamentablemente no recuerdo el autor) y SIDDARTHA de Herman Hesse.
