About Me

Hi there, I'm Martín, and I am excited to be a part of the Couchsurfing community once again. During my student days in Córdoba, Argentina, I received dozens of guests into my home . I am proud to say those were some of the most memorable experiences of my life.

Now I am embarking on a new adventure with my wife Natalia and our daughter Ema (almost 8yo). We are traveling to Europe for the first time and plan to visit Barcelona, Rome, Vienna, Munich, Prage, London, and some other towns. I am excited to experience Couchsurfing from the other side, as a guest, to create new memories and friendships along the way.

I am a computer engineer, and I currently work as a software developer for a US-based company. Natalia, is a German translator and a teacher at the National University of Cordoba. Together. Ema is about to turn 8 years old and is currently in the second grade. She is a smart and curious girl who loves to learn about new cultures and languages. We are open-minded, respectful, and always excited to meet new people and explore new places. We believe that Couchsurfing is not just about finding a free place to stay but about building meaningful connections and sharing unique experiences. We are excited to be a part of this community once again and look forward to meeting you all soon.

We are a friendly and respectful family, and we love to learn about new cultures and ways of life. We enjoy cooking, hiking, and spending time outdoors, and we are always up for a good conversation over a cup of coffee or a glass of wine.

Thank you for considering us as your Couchsurfing guests. We look forward to meeting new people and discovering new places during our European adventure.

Best regards,

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a lot of movies! Famous, rares, jewels and more. Would you like to see?

I like discover and recommend alternative music from my country, uruguay, and brazil. I like very much bossa nova, murga, candombe, latinamerican folklore, and rock. (and every fusion in the middle)

I enjoy very much taking photos. I have a good (and very expensive) new camera .
Writing is a good hobby too. The evidence of my attemps (in both cases) is in www.textoypretextos.com.ar

Teach? May be something about the importance of Free Software, why and how use Linux, and some cool and useful sitewebs. Technology isn't just the newest electronic device, but is a powerful tool to change the world in freedom.
