Hello everyone! Met a few people in 2015 who told me about Couchsurfing and it sounded like a great idea. I like meeting people from different countries and hearing about their perspectives of life, their way of living and reflections about life itself. I would describe myself as someone who started to travel four years ago and doesn´t see a stop to it I've never feared doing completely new things that took me way over my comfort zone (learning to Ski, living in a new country, starting a company) and now... Well, now, I'm off to the Canary Islands (6/12/2018-1/4/2019) to become a Diving PADI Instructor (Divemaster Certification) in Gran Canaria, of course, I've never dove before, but if you've read so far, that's no problem Since I created my account I've only stayed in one place, a wonderful woman named Giselle and
her son received me the first couple of days when I arrived in London (5 Nov 2015), and I'm hosting a wonderful guy in my tiny room until I leave to Canary

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the experience, it's easy to just book a room online from afar and arrive there, there are no real stakes in the matter.

Couchsurfing is different though, you really put yourself in a place where you'll see the full picture of the place where you stay and the locals bring the colour to it.

The idea is to know the place through the locals' eyes and perspectives, as well as embracing new groups of friends who are down for new experiences from clubbing to climbing and diving as well as some singing in the beach

Interests

Skiing (Snowsports really)
Football (it´s not soccer!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I travelled to Florida to buy two suitcases full of Lego to sell one of them to a guy back in Argentina and with the $ I made I could afford the 2nd suitcase for myself, the trip itself and paid the expenses to do a Work and Travel Winter Season in the US, and became a Ski Instructor this way.

Teach, Learn, Share

Anything related to behavioural psychology, general psychology, philosophies of life, business, the future of humankind, fears, joys.

In short, any profound conversation and reflection is something I'm down to do, but we can always get wild and go climb a cliff.
