About Me

-Hi, My name is Leandro Sostre, I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina (maybe you heard about Tango the typical dance from Buenos Aires, "mate" the typical drink, and Messi or Maradona football players).
-I work as a photographer and filmmaker, I make photos and videos for male and female models, I make fashion films, or backstage and all kind of filmmaking stuff. Also I make travel videos to show people the uniques and beautifull places in our world.
-I also work in a therapeutic center with psychiatric patients, I do group talks where they can share their wishes, their plans for the future, their fears or just share something they want to talk about. Besides I make a photography workshop where patients can learn photography, have a good time and develop their interpersonal relationships.
So yes! if you read up here you'll be thinking "Does he have 2 jobs?" "Is he a photographer or a psycologist", and I have to say thankfully "Yes Im a photographer and a Psycologist, and I work as both".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am in CS because I want to travel around the world but I don't want just to take photos or videos about it. I want to learn about the culture, the locals, and explore more deeply the place I am at. When you take a holiday trip, you explore the main points of the city, if you like photography you take some pictures of The Eiffel Tower or the Coliseum, but I want to go beyond that. I would like to explore the city with more time, paying attention to little things, hearing stories from local people and I think that could help me to understand more about the culture of that place. So, for me Couchsurfing is a "culture community" where everyone ir learning something from others.

-My favourites films are thriller and suspense movies. Also I like drama and love movies (yes im a little bit corny, haha)
-Books: I dont read a LOOOOT of books, but I read pycologist books, or novels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a 5 day trek in Peru, call Salkantay. It was so hard, we reached 4800 meters high, we walk through the jungle, through the mountains and this Huge glaciar call Salkantay. My team mates were 2 Irish soldier who were in shape and very well trained, they always encouraged me through the whole trekking to keep going and never giveup.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to teach photography, photoshop, and spanish of course. And I want to improve my english, learn about the culture in every country and meet new people, new story lifes, and lifestyles.
I also can share my dance skills, cumbia, reggaeton, etc (latinoamerican music). Just kidding.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you open the door of your house, I will be very thankful, I can offer you to tell you about the Argentine culture, music, history, food, etc. And of course, I can take you proffesional pictures, with your pets, your family, friend or just you. (I can edit them in my laptop, while i am at your house). And if you want to learn, I can give you photography classes, how to use a camera, compositions rules to improve your photos,etc. Remember I'm a professional photographer and it would be a nice experience to teach in different countries :)
