About Me

I am an artist, musician and educator.

I have a BA from CONSUDEC, Argentina, a MA from Maynooth University, Ireland, a MC from Berklee College of Music, US, and a PhD from Dublin City University, Ireland.

I love travelling, especially short breaks. I like meeting people, befriending people from all walks of life and being challenged by different perspectives.

I enjoy meaningful experiences and connections.

I love auteur film, writing, and reading. I paint, write and compose music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting and connecting with people when travelling. Few things are more rewarding than making new friends, even acquaintances, and feeling that the world is a bearable, interconnected place and that one is part of this.

I used to be a Couchsurfing member and hosted people from all around the world throughout the years. The stories that those people have to share are always fascinating to me.
