About Me

I am a easy going, open minded person (or at least that's what one wants to think, eh?). Just want to have a good time and let things flow.

I just reactivated my account after many years. Some things in this profile are a bit old, but I've updated most of it. I'm a musician soon to be touring Europe, mainly Portugal and Spain. I am a guitarrist and I play argentinian music, among other styles. I think the best things of this life are there to be shared. I also just realized that I'm not really that good at writing about me as I thought!

Being extremely respectful is a trait I like to think I have. Especially when someone invites you to stay in their home. Opening you door to someone is definitely not a minor thing

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS is a must for those of us who want to learn and share different views of the world (and can't always afford hotels/hostels - especially for our weak 3rd world country budgets). Also, nothing beats staying with a local when abroad, that's the real deal! 98% of the stories I've heard of CS experiences were said to be really good!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As a host only. Great experience so far!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Classical, Jazz, Rock, Flamenco guitar and pretty much every other music too ^^

Books: I love the writings of H.Hesse, Huxley, I'm also a big science fiction fan; Asimov, Lem, Stapledon, A. Clarke...

I love movies too, especially those that have an interesting story (that's obvious, but not that many movies have it you know), and those that have crazy concepts (the inception, mr nobody, for example). A few directors I really like: Kubrick, Aronofsky, and that korean guy, Kim Ki Duk

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This will sound very cheesy/naive, but the most amazing things I believe I do is sharing time, or doing whatever with the most amazing friends, family, and coworkers I have. To me, that beats stuff like jumping off a plane wearing a parachute (the kind of cool stuff I feel one should write in this paragraph) any day.

Teach, Learn, Share

Music related stuff, I can teach that sort of thing. That´s actually what I do for a living but I think there are a lot of things that I could teach/learn. For example, I love astronomy, since I was a kid I´ve always been fascinated with outer space, so I did a few courses and read books about it, but well, I´m just an amateur on that subject. Anyway, I´m sure there´s much to be learnt from all these weird people in this community that have traveled all life experience and different worldviews

What I Can Share with Hosts

Music, frank conversation, good vibes and love for food (eating and cooking as well, of course). Good stories, we all have them.
