Overview
About Me
FACTS:
Hitchhiking and CS fan ❤️
Hitchhiking and couchsurfing I've just met great people that always give me something new and power up my energy to keep going !
I am a guy who left behind a previous and kind of boring life to explore the globe. I am always looking for opportunities to discover new places, meet new people, and to learn and enjoy life!
Working in restaurants and hotels, I have lived in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, France, Italy and Uruguay!! Those were amazing experiences where I met so many awesome people and maaany outstanding places.
Since I started living like this, I feel time has started to pass by more slowly than before. I say it is because of the amount of new experiences and the differents things I do that makes me feel like we are " living more".
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am in CS because travelling isn't just about visiting places. It is about learning, communicating and exchanging. By travelling we create connections with cultures and people, we learn more about the world, about others and we learn a lot more about us. Couch surfing gives us all of that In a very unique way making connections that otherwise wouldn't be possible. There are so many people here that really have this spirit of discovering, sharing and connecting that maintain the real purpose of CS alive. That's why I am here - looking forward to connect with people and to contribute in our way with this meaningful way of travelling.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like all sorts of music. My main playlist is a crazy random mix hahahaha
I enjoy watching good movies, mainly documentaries, dramas and suspenseful ones.
American History X, Memento, Reservoir Dogs, just in time, the Road, fight club, A history of Violence, inception, Amores Perros, and many many others.
Regarding books, I prefer reading books about history, politics, biographies and mainly dystophies like 1984 for example
