About Me

I am a 23 year-old student. I was born in Argentina but I lived in the south of France when I was a kid, and I returned back to my country in 2005. Now I am studying Industrial Engineering in Argentina. As an exchange student, I have studied Project management in Germany for a year, and now I am going to be studying Environmental Engineering in Nancy, France for a semester.

I am a little idealistic, a bit clumsy, I like to speak with people and have a real talk.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from around the world!

Interests

I like reading and drawing. As almost everyone here, I also like travelling and learning languages. I am not good at group sports, but I like roller-skating,riding a bike, hiking and climbing (I am not good at it, but I like it), and I absolutely adore air acrobacies (I don't actually know how they are called in English). Almost everything that includes arts too.

As far as professional interests, I would like to work for sustainable development, renewable energies, environment and things like that, that I think will be very important in the years to come.

Music, Movies, and Books

Mmmm hard question.

Music: just about everything, but specially trip hop (Chinese Man, Waldeck, Portishead, Björk, Massive Attack). Also jazz, Quentin Tarantino's soundtracks, Nina Simone, (let's see my Spotify lists), almost all 80's music, German rappers like Alligatoah and Dilemma, French classics like Georges Brassens, Serge Gainsbourg and Françoise Hardy, Argentinean rock like Gustavo Cerati, quite a variety...

Movies: loved "Chicago", "Amélie", "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind", "Inception"... lots of others... (making a list is really hard, but in short, I like movies and books that ask themselves about humans, how we act and why we act)

Books: I can start saying my childhood was marked by Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, but that's pretty obvious for my generation. I like Latinamerican novels: "Como agua para chocolate", "Rosaura a las diez", "Cien años de soledad", Julio Cortázar's "Rayuela"... Once more, making a list is terribly hard!
Right now reading simultaneously (yeah, I'm that kind of person) a Swedish author, Karl Ove Knausgard; Michael Ende's "Never-ending story" and Stephen Hawking's "Brief History of Time" :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, laughs... I am not really good at cooking (unless it's tortilla de papas, a Spanish potato pie, that usually turns out delicious), but I can help cutting vegetables and washing everything later :)
