Hello!!! my name is Iván. I'm from Uruguay, and I'm living in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, since november 2015.
I'm studying photography at the art school of Las Palmas, and I'm gonna make my Erasmus trainsheep in Poland for 2 months from May to July in 2017.

I really like travelling and knowing new people from all around the world. I dedicate my free time to arts; like writing, music (hip hop), drawing/painting, pohotographying and recording videos. I think travelling is also important because is a way to inspire you in these things.

I think I'm a quiet person, altough I really like partying, obviously. I'm always disposed to share and learn with others new things; having friends from different parts of the planet is very nice, and is a good way to make this world better.

Holaa! Mi nombre es Iván, y estoy viviendo en Las Palmas de Gran Canaria desde Noviembre del 2015.
Estoy estudiando fotografía en la Escuela de Artes de Las Palmas y voy a hacer el Erasmus entre mayo y julio del 2017 en Polonia.
Me encanta viajar y conocer gente de todos lados. Me dedico a lo artístico en mi tiempo libre; sobre todo escribir, hacer música (hip hop), dibujar/pintar, fotografiar y grabar videos. Ciertamente viajar es una forma de alimentar todo esto y por eso para mi es importante también.
Creo que soy una persona tranquila, pero cierta y obviamente me encanta la fiesta. Estoy siempre dispuesto a compartir y aprender de los otros siempre; tener amigos alrededor del planeta está muy bueno y e incluso me parece una forma de hacer este mundo mejor.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really like the page philosophy; I think that time is the most important thing with what you can pay someone. Money goes and back, but not the hours, and everyone who shares you a bit of its time, is sharing with you a bit of its life.

Me gusta bastante la filosofía de la página; pienso que el tiempo es lo más importante con lo que alguien puede pagar. El dinero viene y va, pero no las horas, y todos aquellos que te compartan un poco de tiempo, te están compartiendo un poco de su vida.
