About Me

I'm an actor, musician, dancer, and I make videos sometimes. I enjoy the sun and the rain but I can't stand the snow. I'm a counselor at a performing arts camp in Salem, Oregon in the US and I love teaching young people about the arts! I'm currently learning to dance tango in Buenos Aires, Argentina as well as exploring the city and trying learn more spanish!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on here to find some friends in the city! I'm living in BsAs for 3 months and it would be cool to get to know a local who knows the city and can show me some fun things to do here. Shoot me a message if you want to meet up for a chat in a coffee shop or go to a milonga together!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

2 years ago I was in a production of Mary Poppins at a theater in my hometown. After 2 months of rehearsal learning all of the music, dance choreography, and dialogue, we had a 5 week run during which we performed 8-12 times a week in front of sold out crowds of around 400 people. After each show I went down to the lobby with the rest of the cast to meet all the children, take photos, see all their smiles, ask them questions about the show, and hear whatever they wanted to share with us! My favorite part was meeting all the excited kids after the shows.
Once the run was over, our production ended up winning a ton of local theatre awards and we won 'Best Production of a musical' at 2 different awards shows! I still enjoy working at the theater as a class assistant and backstage crew member.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to play Ukulele, Guitar, Piano, and to swing dance, and I love learn new forms of dance and new instruments to play! I'd also love to learn how to cook some traditional Argentine food while I'm here like empanadas or the like. I'd be willing to exchange skills/buy ingredients if you'd like to teach me!

Countries I’ve Lived In

Argentina, United States
