I come from a multicultural family, German-Argentinian. I've always been interested in foreign cultures and that's why I have learnt different languages. I grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina. But now I live in Bonn, Germany. I have also lived in Berlin. Other cities I've been to in Europe are Frankfurt, Munich, Hamburg, Antwerpen, Paris. I've been to many places within Argentina: not only Buenos Aires (the capital city), but also the inland provinces. I´ve also been to Uruguay, Argentina's neighbour country.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am very eager to get to know the world. I find it cool to host people in my house in Bonn or in Buenos Aires and also be hosted in other cities. This way we can form a network of people interested in discovering new places, living thrilling experiences, sharing their customs and traditions, and getting and giving cool travelling tips!

Interests

I dance hip hop, I work out 3 times a week, I learn French, I participate at a local radio in Buenos Aires, I love listening to music. I love travelling and getting to know new places and people. My next new personal project is learning to play either the guitar or the drums.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Organizing a year end party with my best friend for more than 50 people. We were in charge of choosing the music, hiring a party bus which took us for a drive through Buenos Aires before entering the party, and organizing the details of the whole event: invitations, party novelties, billing, etc. On other occasions, we also organized limousines rides, previous to entering one specific party.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very excited to learn new cultures, new languages, new customs and traditions and share my cultural "baggage" with new interesting people. When I arrive at a new place, I want to get to know the locals and the places they go to, and not only the touristic places.

What I Can Share with Hosts

When I am hosted, I always bring a present representing my cultures. I am always eager to host someone who has been kind enough to host me. I usually propose to do some activities together, if the host is willing to. And I definately bring knowledge about Latin America and Germany to share, as well as good travelling tips!
