About Me

I'm Sound Designer and Musician. Very easy-going, chilled and fun to be around. I'm very responsible, clean and tidy.
Non-smoker, not a party animal but like to party from time to time. Food fanatic.
Always willing to learn about different cultures, philosophies, points of view and many other aspects of life.
Listening to people from different parts of the world is very nurturing and educational.
I carry my guitar so we can jam or I can teach you how to play if interested ;)

I've been travelling for almost 5 years now and not planning to stop :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS is a great community and is great being a part of it. Helping fellow travelers and getting to know people from all around the world is something I try to do when abroad and at home.

I'm currently starting a new trip around Asia and would love to know great people over there.

Interests

Music is life and the path I choose to connect with people from all over the world.
Nature is our mother and we should take care of her trying to live in harmony with her.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Funk, Reggae, Soul, Blues, Rock & Roll, Ska, Cumbia, Argentinian folklore, pretty much everything but not Reggaeton or comercial mainstream music.

Movies: Back to the future is my all time favourite. More into SciFi, comedy, drama, thrillers, action and documentaries.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recorded a Reggae album with friends while living in a tropical rainforest in Brazil.
Already lived in 4 out of 5 continents over the last 3 years of my life, last stop Africa.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching guitar to beginners and want to learn to cook different foods from every place I visit.
Also like sharing my knowledge in different areas such as Music, Recording, Photography, Film making.

Something I try to do when traveling is knowing what the people think about what's going on in our crazy world, listening to them talking about their own countries, getting new perspectives and realizing that in the end almost every country goes through the same processes. Meaning that we are all equal and we should be aware of that and unite in order to make a real change.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cultural exchange, my ideas, my vision of the world.
I travel with my guitar so we can jam or I can teach you how to play if interested ;)
Passionate about cooking and sharing recipes from every corner of the world I've been so get ready for a treat.
