About Me

Last update: Im a founding team member of torre.co, a startup that is making work fulfilling for everyone. 5+ years here, working remote. Finally, being able to travel meanwhile I work. I missed traveling and meeting new people!

I worked as PR and Corporate Relations in the best Business School of my country... But I notice that I have an opportunity to link my passion and my skills.

I am traveling around the world, living with locals, to map the best negotiation practices that could help companies, business and project in their international expansion - GlobalNegotiationMap.com

And as the most amazing thing of this project is the process... TRAVELING and meeting a lot of people of different cultures =D

I have +5 years of experience in Negotiation, Business Innovation and Entrepreneurship support.

My contribution is the generation of relationships between people / organizations / brands... …because results and a better world are built by all of us working together!

Once an AIESEcer, always an AIESECer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I am traveling to have a local perspective (not just the tourist one) I want to live and spend time with people that can show me how is to live there, the culture and everything!

Interests

> I love to meet people, know about their culture, the way they live.
> I like to MENTOR entrepreneurs and businesspeople: a good pitch is a great YES.
> I enjoy RUNNING. It is the best way to realize the importance of discipline and persistence... and work on it.
> I love to RIDE motorcycles. It just shows me that each day is a gift from heaven to take the most of it, as if it’s the last one.
For sure one day it will be…

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy so much action movies, but also the ones for "youngs" such as Ice Age (my favorite!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

More than one!
> Drinking a 12yr Whisky with 400yr ice form Perito Moreno Glacier after a 2hr trekking in El Calafate, Argentina.
> Seeing a natural Oasis in the middle of the Ica desert, Peru.
> Diving in
Park, Colombia, was amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been many years in the business sector. I would be so happy if my knowledge and experience could help somebody =D

That means negotiation strategies, Storytelling, marketing&Communication tactics, support to entrepreneurs, startup pitches, etc.

Also I can help people to practice Spanish and English... even maths and physics too!

I want to keep learning french. Also to learn German.

I tried to get out and run at least 4 times a week. I would love if I can share this time with somebody =)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Life is made of histories. I have some of them that I find really interesting...
Not because I quitted my job or I had have an motorcycle accident, but because I have noticed than in each one of them there are some learning points that made me change my life.
