About Me

ABOUT ME

I´m 26 years old and I am from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I graduated as a lawyer in 2006 and I am currently finishing my LL.M, (Laws Master) at Bucerius Law School here in Hamburg, Germany.

I love art and music, love to have fun anytime and anywhere.

I usually go running (10km) and I am willing to do a marathon (24km) in 2010!

I am used to walk a lot so I can be a great local tour guide when you visit Hamburg or Buenos Aires!

Back in Buenos Aires, I work at one of the biggest law firms of Argentina since 2003. Right now I am on leave until February 2010 as I am studying here in Hamburg.

I love meeting new people and seeing news places!

I'm planning to travel as much as I can and, therefore, I need to save as much money as I can on accomodation! In return, I can assure you that I will be nice and try to have fun with you during our time together. I know how to cook (argentinean food is my specialty) and I am a really good chefd!!!

Hope to meet one of you soon!

PHILOSOPHY

My formula for living is quite simple: enjoy and live life as much as you can! Slow down and enjoy life!

It's not where you came from, but where you're going. It's not what's on you, but what's in you. It's not what you're driving, but what drives you that is important!
