Overview
About Me
Living in Milano👌🏻
I'm from Cordoba (at the centre of Argentina where people are more relaxed than Buenos Aires!). I’d finished my Law degree, left my job and began my trip around the world on October 2017 (Dreams happen).
I'm a really laid back person, I always prefer to listen and to let the conversation flow. Anyway, I trust in host/travelers comments more than self descriptions!.
For Argentinian culture the value of the family and friends is very strong. As all of countries in south America our history is about several changes so we are use to facing adverse situations and we have learned to be adaptable and innovative, to use our imagination to solve new problems!. So we are really easygoing and we always find the way to enjoy any moment and share this feeling with the people: we call it "the Argentinian art to fall and rise again!".
“As with any journey, who you travel with can be more important than your destination”.
So new friends and anecdotes makes your trip and Couchsurfing is a key to turn your trip into an awesome experience.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To host travelers definitely represents the máximum idea of "giving and receiving" that makes us so good.
Couchsurfing.org is my way to belive in the people and offer my trust. I love Couchsurfing because it encourages the discovery of other cultures and habits also creates lasting ties of friendship worldwide.
Hosting travelers by Couchsurfing is learning from each other and everyone is free to express themselves without being judged.
Now more than ever, it's time to belive and give a chance on this kind of community, let's think the best of everyone again.
Ojalá se recupere con iniciativas como ésta esa simpleza de antes y la confianza en la buena fe de la gente.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Ive different experiences with each person, I met great people and always try to share as long time as possible with couchers: go by car to Carlos Paz or Cordoba's Hills, visit Che guevara's house in Alta gracia or share "mates" in some park.
By the way, I like listening about their personal stories, collection of life experiences, and try to view the world through their thoughts.
Interests
I want to live a fuller life, "this is our decision to live fast and die young. We've got the vision, now let's have some fun".
Which do you think I'll regret more: letting me waste my money by traveling or letting me die in some office with a great job and a new car?

Music, Movies, and Books
I love Cortazar and I always want to be one of his dreamers characters. I don't watch tv so I always have a book with me. Now I'm enjoying historical novels about places that I'll visit.
I think that short stories are more difficult to write than a long novel (if you can tell a strong story in one page, you're a genius).
Also, Che Guevara's books (he was better writer than anybody knows) he saw and felt in different ways than common people, his book "Diario de motocicleta" invites you to travel.
I miss a lot this Sunday's evening when I watched a movie/serie on the coach (seriously, I love traveling but I really like to watch movies too). I took some film critic classes and I always discover new directors and new/old movies. Some years ago my favorite person in the world recommended me an ANIMÉ director/creator: Miyazaki (who founded Studios Ghibli) and I love it!. So Im open to discover!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
To live with six friends in Plymouth-New Hampshire and work in a ski centre with almost 20 friends from different countries (Actually, it was something as a freaky high school with paychecks, also with a weird school bus). WORK N TRAVEL USA EXPERIENCE when I was 19 years old.
Walk around Hong Kong at night (building's lights illuminates the sky and it looks as a midday!)
Explore an island! We were walking around the jungle and snorkeling there (I didn't expect to see anything and...found a corals arrecife!), Malasia.
Trekking in Sapa's rice fields with local women, Vietnam.
When I accidentally read my niece's private notebook, she's five, and she wrote something like: "the best of my summer were the weeks with my auntie sofi". It was the most intense feeling that I never had, she is growing up and Im here to live it
Teach, Learn, Share
I guess I could show my city and talk about our history (buildings, famous streets, history events), I love walking around Cordoba and Ive studied a lot about argentinian history at University. Also on the weekend we can cook a BBQ with friends or some pasta (my grandma is Italian so my family loves italian food).
I mean, the best way for meeting people and interesting places (good bars, little art galleries, independent theatres, the real culture, hidden places) is with somebody who lives in this city.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can teach some Argentinian curious things also I can cook for you some MILANESAS! (we really love milanesas!!!) or drink some "mate" (I always bring the necessary for drinking "mate", it's our typical way to share some hours with friends just drinking this hot beverages and talking as relaxed as you can!).
As well I can do some Argentinian dessert!
I take care of put every my things in their right place! And you always see my bag close (I hosted a lot of Couchsurfers so I know how important is to take care this little things). You can see my photos and you'll note that I always cook for my host (lucky me for had this opportunity! Normally, I spend more than one or two days in each city so we really share a lot!)
