🚨 HOUSE RULES 🚨

1️⃣ Couchsurfing Is Not Tinder: I host for cultural exchange, not romance. My home is a safe, respectful space. Clear intentions and mutual respect are non-negotiable. Let’s keep Couchsurfing about travel, conversation, and good vibes. 🤝

2️⃣ You’re a Guest, Not a Customer: I’m happy to share my space, but this is my home, not a hotel. I have my own routines and responsibilities, and I expect guests to adapt respectfully. Communication is always welcome, but my house, my rules.

3️⃣ No Obligation to Entertain or Be Entertained: I’m not required to be a tour guide, and you’re not required to be my social companion. If we connect, great. If not, that’s perfectly fine. Independence and mutual respect make the best stays 😊

4️⃣ Basic Respect Is Mandatory: 🛌🏻 Treat my home with care, not like temporary lodging.
🧼 Keep yourself and shared spaces clean.
🙏🏻 Respect privacy. boundaries, and common sense.
👍🏻 Leave your sleeping area as you found it when you leave.

☝🏻 If we’re on the same page, this will be an awesome experience! 👌🏻😃

🎯 CURRENT MISSION

💰 Saving money to travel. ✈️ Traveling to spend the money I saved. 🔄 Rinse and repeat.

👤 ABOUT ME

I work in advertising and digital marketing, and for the past few years, I’ve been working exclusively with U.S.-based companies 📈.

I’d describe myself as curious and funny 😄. I have a (healthy) obsession with historical sites—especially castles, churches, and monasteries 🏰⛪. Also cemeteries… but not because I’m a freak! I just have a deep appreciation for statues 🗿, and trust me—if you want to see cool statues, cemeteries are the place to go! (By day, of course. What am I, crazy? 😜)

I also love to cook 🍝, and for some weird reason, I actually enjoy doing the dishes too. A dirty kitchen makes me nervous! 😅

I’m always excited to meet new people from around the world 🌎.

🧠 PHILOSOPHY

"People see you the way they treat you. If they see you badly, they mistreat you. If you look bad, you’ll be mistreated. If you look good, you’ll be hired." — Mirtha Legrand

(Yeah, I know… it sounds way cooler in Spanish: “Como te ven, te tratan. Si te ven mal, te maltratan. Si te ven bien, te contratan.”) 😆

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are on Couchsurfing because we genuinely value cultural exchange and the opportunity to connect with people in a meaningful way. 🌍✨ It’s not just about finding a place to stay, but about sharing experiences, learning from each other’s traditions, skills, and ways of life.

We respect the hospitality and kindness of our hosts and believe in contributing positively to every interaction—whether through meaningful conversations, helping out when possible, or simply being mindful guests. 🤝💙

Exploring a new city or its nature becomes even more special when experienced through the eyes of those who call it home. 🏙️🌿 More than just travelers, we are lifelong learners, eager to discover what makes people happy and what we can take from each encounter to enrich our own journey. 🚀😊

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

🎆 One of my most unforgettable New Year's Eve experiences was celebrating in Rio de Janeiro 🇧🇷, watching the fireworks light up the sky over the beach 🌊✨. It was truly unbelievable and magical!

🍻 To make it even better, some friendly Cariocas who were hanging out with us even gifted me beers—because, apparently, Brazilians know how to share the love! ❤️🇧🇷

🌊 And of course, after midnight, I did what any (very drunk) adventurous soul would do—I ran straight into the sea! 🌊😂 Let’s just say the water was delightful, and the moment? Absolutely legendary. 🎇🥂

Teach, Learn, Share

🍳 I absolutely love to cook, and I’m always happy to share a secret or two, especially when it comes to my Onion Soup 🧅🍲 or my Tacos a la Argentina 🌮 (okay, okay, maybe they’re better than the Mexican version... just kidding! 😂 They're just different).

🌍 Languages and local expressions are a passion of mine—especially those with a historical twist 🕰️. There’s something about learning quirky sayings that just adds flavor to the experience!

💬 And yes, I also have a collection of shameful stories—from my own embarrassing moments to those of my friends 🤭. Because, let’s face it, shameful stories are the best—they make us laugh, right? 😂

What I Can Share with Hosts

🍽️ Good dishes, 😂 laughter, 🎶 music, 📖 stories, 🤝 companionship, 👫 friendship, and so much more! 🌟
