About Me

I'm kind of an eclectic person! I'm highly curious about almost everything and want to enjoy every minute in this beautiful world. I like to leave good experiences of myself everywhere I go and with everyone I meet, and that's something that gave me a lot of friends in my hometown and abroad. Funny, very proactive, always willing to help and I don't have a problem with anything. I like to accept people as they really are, no need to fake a thing with me! Freedom, transparency and respect are the most important pillars for me. My instagram profile is @experienciarafa

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's a great idea. It promotes the culture exchange and that's something very interesting for me. I want to experience the cities as a local because you get to know the different layers of them, which I would't see as a foreing superficial tourist.
I never hosted because I lived with my parents all my life and now that I'm living on my own, my flat is very tiny and would like to give more confort to my guest. But when I have the space, I won't doubt it.

Interests

I know a little bit of everything. My education gave me a good eye on design and detail, and it's something I would definetly want to check out on my trips. I’m moved by music, it’s definetly an important part of my life, and it’s something I eager to discover when I travel. Also I lovee trying out new food, I eat everything except fish (i don’t like it).

  • design
  • photography
  • technology
  • music

  • furniture

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Ok let's list them! Funky, disco, techno, grime, bass, old hiphop, new hiphop and footwork. My favourite band though is MGMT.

When it comes to movies I enjoy the ones that leaves you a good message, or the ones with unexpected endings. Donnie Darko on my top list, Fight Club, Requiem for a Dream and a lot more.

I'm not a heavy reader but I really like design and furniture books and magazines.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I inmerse myself in very different experiences but the most memorable it's from 2 years ago when I went to Brazil for a summer working experience without even knowing the language, It was so much fun and it really gave me the confidence to actually believe in myself to achieve anything I set my mind on. The year after I did the same thing at Chile. I also went to Las Cataratas del Iguazu, 1 of the natural wonders of the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to fix things, can help you out with pc software issues, maybe mixing some music! Learning is a continious excercise and as long as it interests me, I like to know every detail about it. If not, I'll be very curious about why is it interesting for you and I'll ask you a lot of questions haha. And as transparency is a pillar for me, I'm ready to share whatever you want to know or do.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Argentinians and specially from my city (Córdoba), are known as very warm people, we easily show our appreciation to our close friends and family and all the people we love. Maybe that will be the first thing you notice. And then you are hosting me, obviously I'll be more than excited to share all my experiences and knowledge about the things you choose to talk about!
