Overview
About Me
And when I went to continue my higher studies, I moved to the city of Córdoba. I currently live there since 2013.
I am finishing my studies in Social Communication, this year if everything goes well I receive!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am currently traveling. I received a scholarship from the University, thanks to which I'm in Ecuador since July 2017. Now finishing the scholarship, I would like to visit Colombia, returning to Peru and Bolivia.
In Cuenca, Ecuador, I met people who told me about CouchSurfing. Actually I had never heard before the social platform. So I decided to inquire about it, and although I don't understand very well yet, I really want to meet more people and make a real cultural exchange.
Music, Movies, and Books
I couldn't say what I like. But I could say that I don't like electronic music. Actually I can hear a song or two, but more than 20 minutes, I can't!
I often listen to Argentine rock, under and alternative bands, little knowledge. I love discovering bands and mixes! I love Latin music!
I watch many movies, especially the productions before 2000. The local short films of each place seem incredible to me and they call my attention a lot. With contents of culture, history and local knowledge of each society.
I like fictions that are based on reality, on history. I read more books on history, politics and social theories.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I believe that every lived experience is incredible and we can always rescue something.
I think my experience of moving to Córdoba was incrifiable in terms of what I knew from the past years and the activities carried out: integrate a Murga, a dance group, go to the neighborhood to share with children and women snacks and knowledge. I think the most incredible was to participate in a recreation group, with which we went to neighborhoods and schools to learn / teach horizontally (based on the concept of Paulo Freire).
As for travel experience, it was a motorcycle trip (driving myself), through the north of Argentina and Uruguay. It was the first time I traveled by motorcycle along the route, for so long and with little money.
I believe that the experience of living so long in Ecuador, gave me a lot of knowledge, and like any trip, I turned my head!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach Spanish, to cook rich (especially sweet things), I can exchange books, teach design and editing programs (Adobe).
I am learning to play the guitar and improve my English
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can offer rich mates (drink that is taken in Argentna, Uruguay, Paraguay and Brazil - although in very different ways). A pleasant company crossed with talks, dances, laughs and whatever comes up!
I want to share with other incredible hours and teach / learn horizontally.
