I'm uruguayan but lived in Argentina (childhood) and Brazil (teenager, adult life).

I`m a curious person and like to know different cultures and places.
My main occupation is a goverment job but I also colaborate in a web radio (mainly alt-rock) based in Florianópolis, Brazil.
In the free time, among many things, I like playing acoustic guitar and ride my bike.
What I like most about travelling is having unique experiences and find out the idiossyncracies of the place and their people.
