Hi Everyone!!

I'm Lorenzo from Argentina. I live in Wheelwright, which is a small town (6000 people) located in the center of the country, close to the capital.

I'm a travel lover, definetely!! I have traveled all around South America in a one year trip as a backpacker, from Argentina to Colombia living 3 months in each country (Argentina - Bolivia - Peru - Ecuador - Colombia and Chile). I have also visited Brasil for 6 months travelling by a hand-made mini motorhome from Santa Catarina to Pernambuco, going back home through the coast of Uruguay.

I love to do sports and out doors activities, keep myself fit!! Actually I'm a volleyball player at the local team in my town but I also love to play football with friends, of course!
One of my favourites out doors activities is going on hiking, I really love it! I have done it in all the countries I visited, nothing better than setting up a tent in a National Park.

One of my hobbies is music, I prefer Rock and Roll, Blues and Reggae but I'm always open to experience something new. I'm a Guitar Player!! not the best but I like it, singing in front of a fire is perfect for me.

About my work, I'm a Civil Engineer, I have been working in different construction companies for the last 8 years, mainly as Project/Site Manager.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Becuase there is nothing better than experience new cultures knowing interesting people around the world, that is amazing! I think that we have a lot to learn from different people with different life experiences.

So that is why I'm here, to know new interesting people that contributes to develop myself as a person and on the other side, try to share my culture in the same way to them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would really love to improve my English and Portuguese and, if there is a possibility, learn other languages too! I think is the best way of get in touch with a new culture, learn the language.
Of course, I would be pleased in help you with your Spanish!!

I would also love to share a song with you, I have made a lot of friends because of the music!
It would be great to learn about a new instrument and I could help you to start playing the guitar.

What I Can Share with Hosts

-Share a song, a gass of wine or a beer, why not?
- Talk about travels for hours, good stories and experiences.
- Cook a meal togheter.
- Go on hiking would be great!!
