About Me

Can you make a bowl of cereal? I'm a professional.

Hiking, motorcycles, traveling, sports and music are my passion. I'm an outgoing person who likes to learn as much as possible about new cultures and new perspectives of people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Having fun, to meet awesome people, making new friends and talking about our cultures, life, the future, wishes and hundreds of topics. I would like to expand my understanding and knowledge about the world 🌎

Interests

I'm a musician in progress (pretty bad actually) who's used to listening variety of indie music. I really like motorcycles, I had a red one whose name was 'Daenerys' (don't ask me why). I have been traveling through different countries in South America and those trips have taught me how to enjoy life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Machu Picchu, Uyuni, and San Pedro de Atacama by hitchhiking (South America). Also, I can prepare fried eggs and yogurt with cereals (I know, I'm the new MasterChef)

When I was 17, I ran a marathon (42K) and it was pretty awesome!

Teach, Learn, Share

Some Spanish

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation. I like talking stories about my trips and my culture. Also, If you rather, I could teach you Spanish (Mostly Chilean Spanish* lol) or give you some tips to improve your fluency.

Grab a beer or play some board games.

Moreover, I could make some Chilean food (if you want to take the risk lol)
