Hi! I am Loreto, I come from Chile and I am currently studying in Cologne, Germany. I am a filmmaker, I write, direct and edit videos mostly for NGO and other types of cultural institutions. On my master program, I am focusing on new mediums and innovative ways to tell and experience stories.

I play a bit of piano, I like training taekwondo and doing yoga. I also enjoy going to the cinema and Netflix, of course! I binge-watch as many documentary series as I can, being documentaries my primal interest in film.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Now that I am living in Germany I wish to travel through Europe since there are too many cool places I haven´t seen before!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love anything by David Lynch, and even though is a kind of out-of-character movie, I really like the Elephant Man. I also like Abel Ferrara, David Cronenberg, Lars Von Trier, and Lucrecia Martel. I like listening to Radiohead and Grizzly Bear (and NIN when I am hipper!). I have a great time reading Nietzsche and I especially enjoyed the Gay Science.
