About Me

CURRENT MISSION

-Travel around Oceania
-Find out what makes me happy

ABOUT ME

I love the ocean and spending time with my family which is a contradiction as I live 8 hours from the ocean. When abroad i try to spend as much time as possible with people from other cultures, and love to know that deep inside we all care for the same things and want the same, no matter your religion or where are you from, we all want to be happy and to take care of our loved ones.

PHILOSOPHY

"We better come together, learn to love one another" - Peter Tosh

My personal philosophy is that if you want it really bad, then why dont you go get it? And also, you can do whatever you want just don't bother fellow earthlings (needless to mention that every life form is included in that term), we need to have that positive look, everything will come along. One way or another, everything is going to be alright.

Va a salir todo bien, de una forma u otra.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience was in the Vasque Country where I met with a group of local couchsurfers who organized hiking tours for visitors. I will never forget it, I loved it!

My latest experience was when I gave a wonderful girl from Taiwan a city tour so she could visit the best places around Rosario and we got to know each other and she was wonderful, it was a great experience!

Other experiences hosting people would be when I played rugby and we hosted rubgy players from Australia and South Africa and from other cities from Argentina. And also staying at other rugby players´ houses.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

If i had to say just one thing it would be to travel with my 2 brothers and my parents. Thats the most amazing thing i´ve done in my life.
On the other hand, i live in Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina, its amazing how you can grab your kayak and go to the islands leaving everything behind just for a couple of hours, its a whole different world, you just have to cross the river.
Si tengo que elegir una sola cosa, sería viajar con mis hermanos, para mi la familia es lo más importante que existe. También si tengo que decir que cosa sorprendente hice es lo que hago todas las semanas, que es agarrar el kayak y cruzar a la isla y en 20 minutos estás en una selva inhabitada sin gente, sin nadie, adonde podés nadar, trepar arboles y tirarte desde ahí, etc. Nunca fui a un lugar tan relajado y sin gente como la isla.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach the basics of drawing (shapes, shadows, human body, etc) or teach a cooking recipe.
in fact, I'd like to teach as much (or as little) as I know.
Also some technical drawing which i love.
Basic tips on bodyboarding, etc.
Enseñar dibujo
un poco de cocina
cosas que vi en viajes, leí en libros o viví acá en Argentina
Más que nada, enseñar todo lo que sé, (o lo poco que sé), puede ser finanzas personales, mucha música nueva, todo lo que me gusta relacionado al agua y deportes de agua. Lo que aprendí en el colegio tecnico, conocimientos de fisica, dibujo tecnico también.

What I Can Share with Hosts
