CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world and meet nice and memorable people in the way.

ABOUT ME

We are a couple from Argentina currently living in Dublin. I am 29 years old and Melina is 24. We both love making and listening to music, and arts in every expression. We are simple and easy-going people.

About Facundo: I work as an accountant and I was born in the south side of Argentina. I lived one year in The Netherlands and that experience made me want to know people from all over the world. Mainly because of that, I always wanted to repeat it and so we are now living in Dublin. I play drums, guitar and a little bit of piano. I love music and going out in this city, which is amazing!

About Melina: I am a social worker. During many years I worked in many non-profit organizations as a volunteer and this got me to travel around my country. I love music, and I play drums. I also love to paint and the arts. Reading is one of my favourite leisures.

PHILOSOPHY

We like simple people to have interesting conversations with and maybe make some music together. We mostly like to generate a friendly enviroment at home and wherever we are, where everyone´s included and confortable.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We have decided to come to live in Dublin for whoever knows how long.
Have formed a grunge-rock band and have played in many pubs and venues in Buenos Aires.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The most important thing we can share is the intercultural exchange, the experiences we've learned from, and the differences and similarities out of different cultures.

We are very open-minded people who are always willing to learn from the people we know in the way.

We LOVE music and the arts and therefore it would be great to share moments related to these!
