About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Walk the world, making friends wherever I go.

ABOUT ME

I'm an Argentinian that loves travelling and meeting all kinds of people, wherever I go. Moved to Madrid in 2011 to do my Master's there, I've been exploring Europe since then. Since September 2013 I live in Leuven, about 20 minutes from Brussels.

Interests

Traveling, meeting cool random people, outdoor activities (hiking, cycling). Books. In Argentina I used to make long-distance trips by bycicle. I grew up as a huge classical music fan and an opera lover. Later on I got an uninformed taste for jazz. I am very frequently seen at all kinds of concert venues, especially cheap ones.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a book lover. I enjoy pretty much all kinds of music, but having (poorly) studied piano and violin for a while as a kid, I still have a very strong feeling for the classicals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling across the Patagonia and the Andes (from Argentina to Chile) by bicycle, with two of my greatest friends. Some years later, doing the same... but in the Austrian Alps, and later in Transilvania and across the Carpathian mountains.
