Hi! My name is Mauricio, I am a 24 years old guy from Venezuela and since 2 years I am living and studying Graphic Arts in Leipzig, Germany. I am designer and musician.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to go to new places and I think the best way to know a new city is to be there with the people that actually live there and know the best things that normally the tourists doesnt know. I also had the experience last year of traveling for 6 months in Latin America and through Couchsurfing had the chance to know a lot of incredible persons in every country I visited, and share a lot of experiences and memories with them.

Interests

I like to draw, make music, drink beers, cook, play guitar, design books, print things, make tours with my band, play accordion, see art exhibitions, get lost in unknown places in new cities, try to play trumpet, art, learn and teach music...
