About Me

Short version: I decided to get a one way ticket to Europe and travel as much as I can, and then return home when I feel like it. I want to know and learn about everything out there.

A little bit of history.

I've been wanting to make a trip to Europe for a while now. But there always seemed to be something more important to do like graduating, moving to my own place, etc.
Now I'm an Electronic Engineer, I live in my own place and basically I have no excuses for not going on this adventure. I quitted my job, lent my apartment to a friend and I'm beginning this new lifestyle abroad. I'm both exited and scared about what will happen but only time will tell.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a guest:
I believe that knowing a place is not only about the sights and the museums and historical places, but also about the people who lives there and their culture.
And what best opportunity to get to know the people than staying with them!

As a host:
Hosting people from around the world is like having a little bit of their country inside your home and it will let you know about their culture. Is like traveling without leaving your home!

Interests

I love music and everything about it. I like to make it, listen to it, understand it, enjoy it, study it. I myself play the piano and a little bit of guitar.

Food is one of the things I enjoy the most. I think it's an important part of the culture of a region and if I'm in your town, I'll go to a local restaurant and order the meal of the day.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite music: impossible. I like classical, latin, jazz, blues, rock and roll, reggae.
Favorite movies: I don't know, but Fight Club is in the top 5.
Favorite books: the ones that I can learn something from while I enjoy reading them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I jumped off a bridge in Baños, Ecuador.

Drove over 3300 km in Iceland... Sleeping in a car for 2 weeks!

Teach: I can teach you how to make an Argentinian asado and how to cook my local food. Also, if you are interested in learning spanish I can help you with that too.

Learn: your food and your language.
