CURRENT MISSION
Enjoy the lightness of being.
ABOUT ME
I was living a nice and easy life back in Buenos Aires. My career was on track, I was living by myself... everything was ok but it seemed like there was something missing.
I hadn't traveled much till that point and my expectations about living abroad had almost vanished, until one autumn afternoon during breaktime (I was taking german classes at the time) a classmate told me about her experience living in New Zealand. And that started it all.
First, I headed to beautiful Aotearoa, where I lived for a year, and from where I was able to explore amazing Asia (First trip included SEA, HK and Macau). Then I had the pleasure of living in wonderful Australia, where I stayed for a year and a half. Next chapter was in Taiwan, where I stayed for six unforgettable months, went back to Oz and finally went back to Buenos Aires, just to get ready for my next trip.
In 2018 I was granted a scholarship to study Mandarin in Taiwan, where I stayed for a year and a half.
After that awesome experience I flew to Spain, where I could finally visit my grandparents town.
Now Im back in BA, looking forward to meet travelers.
I love backpacking, city exploring, documentaries, sports (football, running, hiking, etc) and specially, helping people, so, that's why I joined CS. Hope to see you around!
PHILOSOPHY
Open minded
Taking Couchsurfing spirit as a personal way of being.
Что привело меня на Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
When in Buenos Aires, I help CSers who were willing to know the city, its people, our culture.
While travelling, I try to make people know about Couchsurfing, so I spread the word...
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
A friend of mine told me about his experience couchsurfing around Europe and that was it, I knew I had to be a part of it.
Hope one day to be able to host fellow couchsurfers (I definitely will as soon as I'm back to Argentina)
Интересы
People
And I really enjoy reading a good book (I'm reading 万延元年のフットボール - The Silent Cry by Kenzaburō Ōe, at the moment) and hope to write one myself someday, practicing any kind of sport; since I´ve lived a nomadic life for quite a while, anything related to alternative ways of life, enviromental sustentability, etc. and I´ve been watching a lot of Asian films lately (If you are in Sydney, do not miss the Korean film night on Thursdays, organized by the Korean Culture Center).

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)
The very idea of being hosted by someone, at his/her home... amazing.
Been hosted four times now. :) :) :) :)
Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией
I believe that learning someone else's language means to open the gates to an entire culture, to a world to be discovered.
Creo que aprender el idioma del otro significa abrir las puertas a un nueva cultura, a un mundo por ser descubierto.
I would love to speak Mandarin (doing my best right now)
