About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Moving to Sweden

ABOUT ME

Well, tough one. I guess I'm a person you will make you laugh, and I like to think I'm a person with which you could have an interesting conversation :)
I have to admit that a better way to talk about myself is at the bottom of this page, in the part that says "references". One sometimes has an image of oneself that is not necessarily very clear, since it's so hard being objective about it. So let's better see what others say of me :)

PHILOSOPHY

Well, I'm still looking for an answer to that question. Travelling is a good lens pointed at your life. One sees so many different ways of living that the question almost immediately arrises: What is life all about? To me, so far, the most important things there are is love and thrist for knowledge. I stress the sentences "to me".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For the moment I'm surfing. Travelling alone is much nicer if you get the chance of sleeping at someone's place where you will meet the locals, have interesting conversations and feel a part of the city rather than a mere tourist.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfing experience has been great so far, I've met so many nice people in these last months that it is incredible to think that I almost had no friends in Europe before leaving home.

Unfortunately I haven't hosted due to lack of space, but maybe my next appartment will allow for it! I hope so.

Interests

I'm interested in pretty much everything. I'm especially fond of languages, music and literature. And I also like bad jokes.

Music, Movies, and Books

Wow, long list here.
In music, I am an absolute fan of classical music. I have to say that I barely listen to anything else.

And books, as anyone who knows me might say, I just can't live without them. Just give me a book and I'll be happy. Well, it might not be as simple as that, but I really love books. Among my favourite authors are Bertrand Russel, Erich Maria Remarque, Jack London, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Jorge Luis Borges and Leo Tolstoy

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Scottish Highlands, the best place I've been to so far on my trip. I swam in Loch Ness, and my feet went numb for the next two hours!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm more fond of learning than teaching, but if you're interested, I can teach you Argentinian slang, how to play the Irish whistle, some stenography (shorthand), and something of the languages I know. I fancy learning random things, as you might see. :)
