My name is Manuel Toranzo I am from Cordoba Capital, Argentina. I like sports and music, my main activities. I am passionate about different cultures, their history, customs, geography and biodiversity from all over the world! At the moment I have a hostel in Pipa RN, Brazil and I learned a lot living with people from all over the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was recommended Couchsufing because it is a great alternative to meet different places from people living there! At the moment I am traveling but I would certainly love to be able to receive people at my house when I return!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music! At this point in my life I decided to learn Latin American rhythms!
Films that I loved: Apocalypse Now by Coppola, Pulp fiction by Tarantino, Aguirre and God's Chase, Black Orpheus and many more!
Books: The steppe wolf of Herman Hesse, Rayuela by Julio Cortazar, The open veins of Latin America by Eduardo Galeano, Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradburi and many more !! How hard is this slogan haha ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I do not know if it will be amazing ... But with my girlfriend and her family we rent a house in Pipa, a paradise beach in northeastern Brazil, we transformed it into a hostel and it was certainly one of the richest experiences I had in my life! Mention that we did everything ourselves, without employees, ie: cleaning, maintenance, reception, advertising, online sites, etc! One detail is that I also learned to surf! Jajaj incredible learning too!

Teach, Learn, Share

I know how to play the guitar, typical rhythms of Argentina, of Brazil and some more ....
I have knowledge of Portuguese and English!
I have knowledge of gardening, construction, carpentry and much willingness and predisposition to help!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to talk and share experiences, to learn new things and I am very open to experiencing any custom of others :)! I am very educated and located, I am raised in a very neat environment and I have the habit of helping in the daily tasks of order and cleaning, it is not necessary nor ask for it.
