Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to meet new people and show them around. I think that in order to really get to know a place you must see live like people really live there, even if its one afternoon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I wish I had more time to get to meet the people here, but anyway I've had the chance some really nice folks, don't have a couch to offer, but we can have a coffee or a beer and check out the place, and it's always been very nice.

Interests

I love art and design, chaotic cities, jungles and the sea... i need them all.
History is amazing. Novels and stories are the best fuel.

Music, Movies, and Books

Well, i think that Persépolis (book and movie) is one of the finest art pieces i've seen.
Punk rock makes me happy, but so do many other types of music.
Cortazar, Benedetti, Michael Ende are some writers that have left me short of air, also René Pérez, aka Residente Calle 13.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

if i tell you now... what will we talk about when we meet?... weather? ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

i about to learn:
about your country and your culture
about the things you have to teach
and about those things i don't even know that exist yet.

i can show you my country, and it's cool spots. and if there's someway i can help you, let me know.
