About Me

I am travelling with my 6 year old boy,

According to the Myers Briggs personality test -based on Jung- I am an ENFP. That is to say: extraverted, intuitive, independent, energetic, compassionate, passionate, idealistic, curious, sociable and harmony-focused. I am an excellent listener and communicator, being cooperative and willing to see the whole picture in life.
Among my weaknesses, I can say I might have some lousy practical skills, tend to overthink things, can get easily stressed. Given that I have been travelling for the last couple of months, I could probably say that stress is becoming a smaller problem for me!
Overall, I am a creative soul who is willing to understand the complex puzzle of life, and always looks for deeper meanings.

Being a performing artist (singer, dancer, actress), I usually find it very difficult not to perform while I am not on stage: the thing is that I Just love making people laugh, or at least smile!

I find it really interesting to discus about interesting topics about life, the world, music, films, politics... anything would do it, I just love sharing different points of view, and learning from everybody!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love sharing visions and talking about different aspects of life and the world. To me, learning other points of view is one of the most nurturing things in life!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2005, I received a scholarship to the USA, at the University of Richmond. It was a great and nurturing experience! I had so much fun!
In 2007, I went to India on another scholarship. Dehli was awesome!
In 2015 I decided to leave Argentina and chase my dream of going to Japan to take butoh classes with master Yoshito Ohno!

A couple of years ago, I took a course to become a chef, therefore I am an excellent cook! Besides, since I come from Argentina (land of great wines) -and my dad owns a Wine Store- I know a lot about wines!

I am a performing artist who loves stage as much as wine. I've sung with different bands, and even in two operas! I am also a butoh dancer, having performed as an evil Villi (spirits from heart broken women, who live in the Black Forest hunting for cheating men) in Puccini's Le Villi.

I have painted murals in my house... with nail polish! I have a "private" mural, which I painted by myself; and a "public" one, open for everyone who wants to paint. Guests and friends are free to collaborate!

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I am a teacher and a life-long student... I just love teaching, learning, sharing information, seeing other points of view.

Apart from teaching English and Spanish, I would be very glad to show how to prepare some Italian and Argentine recipes, as well as other creations of my own!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am joyful and yet quiet when I see the other person needs some space. I am a helpful person, both in terms of house chores and being a good listener and counselor. Sharing is what makes me happy and what I think makes the world a better place!
