About Me

CURRENT MISSION
"Se tu viodis cualchidun che al polse, judilu!!!
If you see someone resting, help him/her!!!"

ABOUT ME
I'm a very relaxed guy, i'm curious too (in a good sense) and i like people with sense of humour. I'm always interested in meeting people from abroad as i'm an international relationships student and i try to learn something new from travellers. I can help you to have a good time if you come by Rosario, there's a lot of things to do! The city it's also known as the cradle of the argentinian flag and famous "Che" Guevara's birthplace.

Soy un tipo relajado, curioso (en el buen sentido) y me gusta la gente con sentido del humor. Siempre me interesó conocer gente de afuera, por eso estudio relaciones internacionales y siempre trato aprender y conocer nuevos idiomas. Si andan por Rosario, puedo darles una mano para que la pasen bien, siempre hay muchas opciones. Rosario también es conocida por ser la cuna de la bandera y del "Che" Guevara.

PHILOSOPHY
Soy un tipo común, pero muy particular :)
I'm a simple guy, but a very particular one :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing it's a great invention, it's not only about to travel "low cost" (which is already a good thing) but about meeting real people in their everyday life, you really get a different experience than the average normal tourist, so much interesting. Plus it's perfect if you are travelling alone, you can make friends easily. It's about meeting people with the same interests, travelling and share experiences. It's not for anyone but you should try it!

Creo que el "surfista de sillones" es un gran invento, no es sólo "viajar barato" (que ya de por sí es algo bueno) sino que te permite conocer gente en su vida real, es una experiencia tan distinta de la del "turista promedio", mucho más interesante. Además es perfecto si viajás solo porque podés hacer amigos fácilmente. Se trata de conocer gente con tus mismos intereses, viajar y compartir experiencias. No es para cualquiera pero lo recomiendo!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Getting stuck a couple of times, in a couple of places and being rescued by unknown people by hitch-hiking... even in the middle of the night. That was amazing... very cool experience, so nice, solidarity feeling.

Quedarme varado un par de veces, en un par de lugares y ser rescatado por desconocidos haciendo dedo, incluso en el medio de la noche. Eso es genial, muy linda experiencia, muy solidaria, me siento muy agradecido.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The posibility of hosting people is not up to me, but i can show you the city, that's for sure... maybe i can even arrange a good day in our "chalet" house and make you try our famous argentinian "asado"..

Lamentablemente no depende de mi la posibilidad de hospedar gente, porque todavia vivo con mis viejos, pero seguramente les puedo mostrar la ciudad... tal vez podamos arreglar un buen dia en nuestro "chalet" y probar un buen "asado"...
