I'm a simple respectful guy who enjoys a nice conversation with a good cup of green tea (or beer). I'm an engineer currently living in Viña del Mar but since last year I've been traveling a little bit around the world so probably I'm not gonna stay here for too long. I love music, traveling, hikking and photography.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

On my first time traveling alone I used Coachsurfing and I had an incredible experience. I think CS offers a great way to meet new interesting people who understand the amazing things that can happen while traveling and are happy to share that feeling with someone else. For the same reason I would be happy to give a hand to any fellow treveler if I can.

Interests

I'm a cat/tea person, I like cycling, swiming, tennis and anything that keeps me active. I play bass guitar since I was 13 years old and also a little bit guitar. I listen to many different styles, rock metal, jazz, funk, chilean folk music, reggae, classic and the list goes on.
I'm really into photography, I'm not a profesional but I love how this art helps you to see beauty in places or things you never paid attention before. I like to discover and try new foods, I think it's a great way to get to know a place while traveling (at this moment I'm vegetarian). I looove to go hiking, camping and getting in touch with nature so if you have tips I'm more than happy to hear them and share some with you.

UPDATE
I'm moving to Melbourne with a Work and Holiday visa this 13th Feb and would love to stay with someone who knows the city and maybe can give some advice to someone who's just starting his life in Australia :)
