ABOUT ME

Hi there
I´m George, or as people call me here Jorge. I´m currently 21 years old and as everyone in this amazing website i want to travel the world!!!. Why you may ask yourself? Well, firstly I do believe that travelling opens your eyes and is a way of leaving the coccoon . Also for me it`s the best way to practice a language such as English in my case, or Portuguese also which I´€™m currently studying. Secondly it`s amazing to meet people all over the world and make friends with someone who lives miles away!!!!. And most importantly it`s an escape from routine, it makes me feel free and alive!!!!.
Here in Argentina we speak Spanish, in case you don´t know ha-ha, but I also speak English and some Portuguese. Telling a bit about my studies, Once I finished high school I went on to college to study psychology after one year I realized it wasn`t my thing so I change careers to business administration. After one year the same felling got me,€œI don´t like this I don´t want to be trapped in an office from 7 to 18. I want freedom€. So as you may see I don´t know what to study, the only certain thing is that my adventurous side wants to be free and right now that freedom in my life is found through travelling and meeting locals and travelers visiting from all over the world!!!
I live in Buenos Aires in a neighborhood called Olivos, a residential area well connected and really safe, I live in between the highway and Av Maipu, 8 blocks from each. I live with my parents. My dad is called George, That`s the reason of my name haha , and my mum`s name is Alejandra. My dad is an electromechanical engineer and my mum has a degree in international trade and works at a school. My sister`s name is Delfina she studies medicine and she is 24 years old. We occasionally have normal minor argues, but don´t worry we get along really well!!

PHILOSOPHY

You´ll learn how to live once you trust in yourself.

It´s okay and normal to be afraid of things we don´t know, the thing is don´t letting this fear stopping us from doing what we want to do.

Do what you want to do in spite of what other people might think or say. It´s your life remember that.

Live life the fullest, I don´t know if there is an afterlife, the only thing I know is that I am alive know and the only thing I have is present time.

Change starts from within.

MOST IMPORTANT, ALWAYS TRUST IN YOURSELF :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Interests

I´m a very athletic person who goes to the gym and tries to eat as healthy as I can and drink lots of water!!! I love open air activities such as rowing football, tennis, roller skating or just going for a nice walk. I also love music and I play guitar and bass, so if you want maybe we could jam a little bit haha. Another thing I’m fond of is watching movies and of my lovely pets called Uma and Bock. Bock is a golden retriever and Uma is a greyhound they are both amazing and really funny, everyone who comes over to my house ends up falling in love with them hah.
