CURRENT MISSION

Economics Ph.D. student, living in Providence, United States.

ABOUT ME

I'm an economist and Ph.D. student who splits his time between trips and social research. I also like dancing, playing soccer, and drinking red wine when it's shared with friends.

PHILOSOPHY

The trip of life is too short to avoid opportunities. Give more, ask less, accept differences and losses, and mostly... keep it simple.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet chill people from different places, and learn about their culture and experiences.

Movies: Irreversible by Gaspar Noé, Solaris (and most of Tarkovsky), anything by Federico Fellini, Ingmar Bergman, Stanley Kubrick, Roman Polanski, Hitchcock, Alex de la Iglesia. Some things by Quentin Tarantino, Woodey Allen, Almodóvar. I also like short-films and Russian, French, Argentinian, independent movies.

Books: I read everything i got in my hands, not much literature lately, but there are some amazing Latin American writers i can show you. I also use to gift Milan kundera's books to people. Last book i read was "The Sublime Objet of Ideology" by Slavoj Zizeck

Music: jazz, reggae, electro, instrumental, indie, Argentinian Rock. Also any music you can dance, this is how i relate my self better with music. But i have to confess than i'm not a music crazy fan, i also enjoy the sound of silence and the space to think.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you the basics of Tango, Salsa , Cumbia and reggaeton. Also how to cook "Milanesas a la Napolitana" and prepare the perfect "Fernet with coke" drink.

I love to talk about economy, philosophy, psicology, sociology, photography, espiritual things and why not shameful and funny stories.

I'm learning French, so if you can help me with that it would be awesome.
