Overview
About Me
I'm a massive Music lover.
My days are mostly about making art, enjoying arts, sharing art, performing arts.
I'm a bit of a geek, I like learning new stuff.
I love food and eating with people.
I'm in love with coffee and cigarettes, I love beer n' whisky...
I am mostly interested in you.
I love people. Almost everyone is interesting for me in some way or another, or as Emerson put it:
''Every person is my superior in some respect, and from that, I learn from them''.
If you are curious about this loving, crazy person, drop me a message. You can find me on facebook as well:
'Rodrigo Casalicchio (tango)'.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The senses of Community and hospitality are so intrinsic to people, I feel it's great to practice and develop these qualities (especially in this era of great connectivity but many' a times great disconnection). We are interdependent, or as Hemingway puts it: ''
Couchsurfing transcends the monetary relationship that we would have with the hotel/hostel/Airbnb and turns it into a great human exchange and a much more interesting traveling experience, giving the guest a local perspective of the place she's visiting and giving the host a new perspective on life from the traveler she's opening her door to.

Painting:
Don't know shit 'bout painting nor any plastic arts, so if you can teach me anything about this, I'd be very grateful.
I do like those great old guys like Leonardo & Rafael, and the not so old like Picasso (pink and blue), Dali,
and even Andy Warhol's work of a banana.
I visited Louvre in Paris, most free museums in Tokyo, and the top 23 free museums in London, loved some of 'em, but usually get bored in museums unless I go with a friend that explains stuff.

Films:
Kieslowski.
Scorcese.
Studio Ghibli.
Some good Japanese films.
Jagten (The hunt). Haneke.
The one with David Bowie in it.
I do enjoy some classical film with Marilyn Monroe every once in a while.
Old films that portray my favorite cities in the world in the times I wasn't yet in this world:
London, San Francisco, Berlin, NYC, Tokyo, Buenos Aires, Moskva, L.A.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Listen to Music.
Teach, Learn, Share
Keep spreading love.
What I Can Share with Hosts
What naturally comes out of our encounter is the most important so it's hard to answer this question. What I can say is that I'm very respectful and empathetic. I'm a good listener and conversationalist.
I'd be more than happy to cook food for us (I love cooking), or take you out for a vegan burger, help around the house, and anything that's in my power to help, give, love.
One thing you shouldn't miss if you are interested in dance in the least is to take an argentine tango lesson with me! It's fun!
