I grew up in Buenos Aires, a spectacular multi-cultural city, which is also incredibly hot! A few years ago I started my medical studies in Venezuela. Throughout my life, I've had a passion for foreign cultures and languages. I enjoy studying and speaking them (if I could manage to!). I am also a big fan of sports: Jogging, biking and hiking in particular, but I believe I would also enjoy any activity that doesn't include a ball. I am very flexible and I simply go with the flow. I adore french and Italian cuisine, and cooking is an essential daily activity that I sincerely enjoy. I like reading, but never on a nice summer day, and I appreciate all sorts of art, a field in which I am not very talented, despite my enthusiasm and admiration for it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I surfed people's couches, hosted some people when I could, met other for few drinks, and always like to also meet with local people for a chat whenever I can, even when I do not need a couch...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been a surfer a couple of times and I hosted a few people. I believe couchsurfing is a great way to meet foreign people and make international friends! Through it, I learnt a lot about foreign countries and cultures, and I met people that left a deep impression on me! After a while you start looking at maps and say: "I have a friend there!"

Sometimes, I've been to a city and ended up happier spending time with the hosts than exploring the place.
I am literally looking forward to meeting again every host and surfer I've met!

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe in the power of "CHANGE". Whether changing oneself, changing the world, the earth or anything, CHANGE is a mighty tool that can be used for the better good- "A journey of a 1000 miles starts with a single step".

I come from a relatively developing country, and I am a big support of Education and I have a big faith in the next generation.

Where I live, we are not too involved in recycling and using renewable resources, but personally I try my best to be eco-friendly. I love places where nature exists in harmony with people; calm soothing places like the Alps, villages and places near lakes and valleys. I also enjoy cities with lots of culture and magnificent attractions. On the other hand, I try to avoid destinations where skyscrapers and modern technology soar "vividly".

What I Can Share with Hosts

I surfed nearly 50 couchs throughout the Americas. From USA to Brasil. Too many to list. But I'm thankful to all of them.
Hosted a couple of dozen people from everywhere. It was loads of fun and hope to do more of that. Hosting and surfing!
