Hi, everybody :-) my name is Santiago , and i'm a musician and i've been playing with lots of different bands and alone , in spain, mostly and also in argentina, belgium, usa,holland,england....but since i discovered the magic of playing in the strees in Gante four years ago ,in belgium, i'm doing it ,since i play the guitar and sing,play harmónicas, slide guitar....so now i go acoustic with my small amplifier and mic, all over the world !
I'm playing a lot in switzerland, and lived here for the last three years most of the time,and of course i play in all kind of events they contract me like for ex. I've been playing in st. moritz quite often , or two weeks ago i flew to play in a very especial wedding in la toscana,italy..
But also i love writing songs, i have one record with my own songs and now i'm preparing and writing new material for my second álbum!
Travelin' it's something i like so much, and i think is good for new experiences,meeting nice people,and get different points of views about life and music:-)
I love it when people love music , or when they play or sing:-) i'm always willing to play and share new tunes :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to know what's real, and meeting the people is the only way . i'm not in the side of the" noisy ones" :-)
