About Me

People call me Nico.

I love listening to music, discovering new musicians and bands of all styles. In particular I enjoy going to chilean bands concerts and live music parties. I used to collaborate with a chilean music blog with some other friends.

I also love to read, i'm into latin american authors such as Julio Cortazar, José Luis Borges, Mario Vargas Llosa, Gabriel García Marqués, Isabel Allende, Alejo Carpentier, among others. I also like classical authors and in general i'll read whatever comes to my hands

Since i started working and earning some money, i've spent the most of the time traveling, mainly in Chile. I love my country, i've been lots of times in the south (Chiloe, Puerto Montt, Puerto Varas, Pucón, etc), once in the Patagonia, in the center of the country in places like Valparaiso, Viña del Mar, La Serena, Coquimbo, and also the north of the country San Pedro de Atacama.

As a host i 'd like to make you have a good experiencie, make you feel at home and have some interesting conversations and hangouts,I hope to learn more about where you are from and the culture of your country

As a couchsurfer i would like to get along well with my host and learn about the places i'll visit
