Hi, how are you? 🌻

My name is Marina, but my family and friends call me Mar. I was born and raised in Argentina, I was a nomad for some years and now I live in Barcelona.

What I like most about traveling is meeting new people. Listening to other stories, learning about different cultures, broadening my perspective.

Although I’m sociable and outgoing, I also enjoy solitude and silence.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The world can only be discovered through people.

Interests

One of my favorite activities is wandering. I walk aimlessly and look for poetry in what surrounds me. I’m into cities because so many worlds coexist in them. I enjoy cultural life. I’m interested in photography, literature, music, art in general.

Sometimes I travel or move to small towns because I appreciate slow living. I like to say hi to everyone I pass on the street, always drink coffee in the same bar and talk with people about simple things like the weather.

I especially love nature. My best memories are under the sun, with the wind in my face and bare feet on the grass.
