Our names are Matias and German. We are from Argentina.
I (Matias) am from San Carlos de Bariloche in the Argentinian side of Patagonia. I am 28 years old and I’ve always loved traveling, having the opportunity to do so around South America, Cuba , Asia, New Zealand, Spain, Morocco and Egypt. And I also love all kind of outdoor activities, mostly hiking and kitesurfing.
German is from Cordoba (center of our country) but we both live together in Bariloche. He is 38 years old.
German has always loved traveling as well and we both arrived around two years ago to Argentina after traveling around New Zealand and Asia for almost two years. And it is now time to go for a new adventure.
At the moment I am working as a tour guide in Bariloche which is what I do since I am 21 years old and I just love it. German works at the airport.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are couch-surfers because we think it is amazing how people can help each other in so many ways, and also because I know how nice it is to get to know people while traveling, mostly if they are locals that can show you around. We've been welcomed to stay in many houses around the world which we are very grateful of. And we also really enjoy when friends that we met around the world come to visit us in Bariloche and stay with us.
