Overview
About Me
I love meeting new people and showing them around. I love Santiago and and I'm still discovering it. Once you're here I'll gladly go with you to the best and most interesting places in town. I have also tons of friends that welcome travellers and are lots of fun to hang around.
I am a very easy going person. I've been living in Santiago for 10 years now. I love day and night life in the capital, and especially the music scene. You will usually find me going to a show during the weekend (or even the week!). There's music almost every day here, and the cool part is that there's a growing community around the scene.
I love football and I play once a week with my friends (mixed team, men and women), so you are absolutely welcome to join us! I promise you'll have a blast!
One last thing, I have a huge passion for cinema. I love talking about movies, watching them, and writing about them. I write reviews for a chilean movie blog.
Finally, I live with 2 other friends at big and comfortable apartment, and yes, there's always room for couchsurfers.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
In general, to meet new people and new perspectives in life. I love learning about other cultures but mostly about other individuals.
I've had a lot of guests already and I've met tons of other couchsurfers. Only positive experiences, they all have been truly wonderful people. I think what I've learned with the people I've met through Couchsurfing has opened my mind about traveling and doing "something else", something different. I really admire the people who don't give a fuck and just travel because they simply feel like doing it.
Interests
Music. I go to concerts almost every a week and that's what drives me now. I also play the guitar and sing from time to time with my friends, just for the fun of it.
I also love films and talking about them, so If you're into film we'll probably have an endless talk :)
