About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Reuse Reduce and Recycle me

ABOUT ME

tímido hasta que no, consentido del humor, abierto pero con derecho de admisión, noctívago...come and fill in the blanks.

PHILOSOPHY

Lo tuyo es lo que podés salvar en un naufragio, lo demás es lo de menos.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Abro mi casa a los couchsurfers, vivo en Palermo, un barrio bien ubicado de Montevideo, cerca de la costa y del centro.
I open my house to you, couchsurfers. I live in Palermo, a very well situated neighbourhood of Montevideo, near the seashore and the main avenue.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Muy buena! Excellent! Geil!

Interests

Me gusta leer, escribir, escuchar música y tocar la guitarra y la batería, correr, fútbol, andar en bici, cine, bares, música en vivo, navegar a vela, viajar.
Basicamente estoy interesado en toda expresión cultural que provenga de una persona o grupo de personas de manera directa más que de cualquier producto de la industria de la diversión.
