Overview
About Me
Now in Paris for a couple weeks. Been a musician for some time. Also a part time worker in many trades.
Currently I'm babysitting a kid at the 16e, so my daytime is somehow busy from Monday to Friday. But always happy to make some time for us to share.
I moved away from Chile at the age of 18, and been Working Holiday-ing ever since: Germany, Denmark, France, and upcoming comes Sweden.
I know my account is not verified, but I rarely use CS. I'd rather use the money in us, getting some concert tickets, cake, or something amazing together.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because I want to take a chance.
These will be my last weeks in Paris and I want to spend some time meeting people in their own environment and lifestyle. Paris has that to offer.
Yeah I ask for a long stay, but I do believe in growing partnerships, and putting my grain of sand for the nicest time together. Would definitely love to prepare some South American food for you, teach you some fun Spanish, going out (if that's your thing).
Interests
I've got a Danish girlfriend who I love with all my heart. We'll move in together during July to our apartment in Malmö. So please, don't hesitate in planning a trip there and we'll happily receive you for as long as you want, as a way to say thanks.
I travel solo though, so it's only 1 couch spot I'm looking for.
No discrimination from my side. Christians, gays, vegans or aborted babies, I'll appreciate all the good you've done for me. Which in this case, is opening your door for a couple weeks.
- concerts
- cooking
- drinking
- traveling
- music
- drums
Music, Movies, and Books
Been listening to Weezer's cover of Africa lately, it works!
Tranquility Base, Hotel & Casino as well. It grows the more you listen to it. Not sure about the final audio as an achievement itself, but the sound production and composition are well nurtured; filled with varied details, enjoyable.
Also some other trades like Steven Wilson, ELO, Posty, Led Zeppelin, Level 42, Foster The People, DMB, Frank Zappa, Bill Evans, Billie Holiday, Paul McCartney.
Regarding movies, always trying to find classics I haven't seen yet (The Crow was the last one), so if you're avid in a genre, it will be very welcome.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Don't mean to brag about it, but abandoning the nest and the comfort zone itself are amazing things to do.
College had a Music major going on, but I wanted those years to go differently. So I took all my bags, sold all my stuff and moved to Europe to do things. So far so good. It's been quite the opposite when it comes to success in my field, yet it has turned out for the best, personal growth-wise. No regrets there.
Teach, Learn, Share
Could teach you some drumming, modern music production, or share a couple beers if you drink, or learn about your hobbies and lifelong interests with all interest (honestly).
Also share from my side, what it is to spend a whole year babysitting a 4 year old. So many stories.
Maybe we can do a weird project together while I'm there? Like buying some plastic card sets and doing a really tall pyramid, or placing bets, or learn something together (how to skateboard, prepare a modern viking event near your street, counting cards in blackjack and making it big somewhere, build a go-kart, anything really. we can pick it together and simply go ahead to fulfill any lifelong fantasy of yours.)
What I Can Share with Hosts
Good habits for sure. Short showers, I'll keep the couch all tidy and nice. Low volumes from my part, no unsolicited visitors, 100% bed bugs free (it's a thing for some people), etc etc.
Of course, collaborating with the house rules (if there are some).
Always up for grabbing a snack, talking.
If you have a pet, I'll go make sure such pet is updated and running in the background. (helping them to be all happy and fluffy, if you need a hand).
