About Me

I am a scientist and a musician, interested in a wide variety of things, from biology and physics to philosophy and new technologies. I play guitar, bass, piano and, sometimes, I sing.

I am very social, friendly, and clean. Also I am a hard worker with clear objectives for my future.

I am respectful and open to different cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have (me and my girlfriend) space in our current house in Rio de Janeiro and I believe that sharing with people is always a great idea.

Interests

My interests goes from arts to science and sport.

I love music, specially rock and nature. I am a huge fan of soccer and tennis (from time to time I try to practice a little).

In science I am interesting (and currently studying) in physics applied to biology; molecular biology, biophysics, evolution, bioinformatics and mathematical modelling of biological processes.

I love travel around my country and abroad, specially, meeting people from other cultures with different visions about the same world we live in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently changed my office "like normal" job at a Bank in Santiago for an awesome job doing research at CECS, in Valdivia, and then I moved, last year, to Rio de Janeiro. And here I am.

A few years ago we (me previos band and me) close a song festival in Santiago, with fireworks, like KISS.

Two years ago, I travel alone for 2 months in Europe. Great experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach physics and programming

I would like to share my curiosity and interest in our reality.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My place is located in Rio de Janeiro (Gávea) close to the PUC-Rio, which is very useful, specially for me!

I try to keep a safe environment (clean, respectful, friendly) for stay and get in touch with Rio.

Also, I can share good conversations and some tours around the city.
