About Me

I'm 27 years old, born and raised in Buenos Aires. I relocated here after three years of travelling around Europe and living in Dublin. I currently work as a translator for a company that makes subtitles for Netflix :)

I'm redescovering my city by meeting new people and trying to get to know every interesting (and tasty!) bit of it.

Travelling keeps me active, teaches me so much about others and myself, and helps me focus on the things that I truly love doing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was hosted during my first Eurotrip, and while in Dublin me and my flatmates hosted some travellers, which I find just as exciting as surfing myself! I would love to keep meeting travellers in Buenos Aires and show them around my beautiful city.

Interests

People, different cultures, food, languages, reading, writing, yoga, swimming, hiking, philosophy, art, museums, music, gigs, festivals. And beer. And wine. And sometimes tea.

Photography is my biggest passion. It's the thing that both scares me and excites me the most. I worked as a music photographer for an Irish blog and enjoyed every second of it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Joni Mitchell, Arcade Fire, Arctic Monkeys, Foals, Tame Impala, Queens of the Stone Age, Massive Attack, Grizzly Bear, Pearl Jam, The Mars Volta, The Kills, everything Jack White related, Radiohead, Luis Alberto Spinetta, Kendrick Lamar, Anderson Paak, David Bowie, The Beatles, Asaf Avidan, Björk, Hiatus Kaiyote and a long etc.

Books: Haruki Murakami, Nick Hornby, Herman Hesse, Charles Bukowski, Milan Kundera and Friedrich Nietzsche are some of my favourite authors.

Movies: I like all kinds of films - from weird indie movies where characters mostly stare at each other to gory zombie blockbusters.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked all the way up to a mountain shelter in Patagonia and spent the night there surrounded by kittens and goats. Camping by the Dead Sea in Israel, and also in the middle of the desert surrounded by nothing at all. Camping in the Sahara desert and being one of the lucky few people that got to experience a proper thunderstorm there. Hitchiking in beautiful Ireland.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to improve my creative and language skills. I'm always willing to try new food and learn more about your country's culture and history.

I can teach you photography, tour you around my favourite places in Buenos Aires and share pretty cool travel stories :)
