I study Architecture (currently on my fourth year) and I'm an amateur photographer, hopefully a professional photographer by the end of the next year.

I think I love my city more than my country, nevertheless I think Chile is an amazing country, with a unique mix of territories! I also think, as many, that our government is not as progressive as it should be by now, but many chileans are quite progressive and eager to learn new and different lifestyles !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm studying architecture at the ENSAB in Rennes (France) this semester, and I think CS may be a nice way to travel through Europe, meeting people and their stories. I'm only interested to be a guest, maybe in the future I could host someone back in Valpo!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm really into indie music, especially latin indie music.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some spanish, I guess.. I like cooking also (and I've been told I'm pretty good).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Many stories about Chile and South America! Maybe a bottle of Pisco if I'm carrying one. Also, as an Architecture student, I'm always willing to learn about a city through the places and experience of a host. If not, I think I can manage my way through the city (no worries).

Also I can offer some of my photography skills, I may not be the best but I'm getting pretty good (I've been told) haha. You can check my work on Flickr (www.flickr.com/valparisino) ;)
