I'm a 23 years old young professional from Montevideo, Uruguay. I have a degree on Media and Communication, and work as an English and Semiotics teacher.

I love travelling, meeting new places and new people. But I'm more of the quiet type. My trips are often quite cultural. I visit museums, galleries, check out architectural and cultural sites. Don't get me wrong though, I also love going out for a pint and a good chat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's a great way of meeting new people!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am passionate about reading and sometimes I write too. I even organise a literary workshop here in Montevideo. Among my favourite writers are Raymond Carver, Paul Auster, and Haruki Murakami.

Music I like includes rock, pop, indie, folk. Some of my favourite bands are: The Kinks, The Rolling Stones, The Stone Roses, Belle & Sebastian, The Smiths, Joy Division, Father John Misty.

I like good films. Among my favourite filmmakers you might find Woody Allen, Wes Anderson, or Wong Kar Wai. I also like French Cinema from the Nouvelle Vague and watching films from not-so-occidental countries, like India, Iran, Japan, Korea. And Latin America, of course.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I suppose I can sort of adapt to the environment I'm in. I'm usually calm and ready for a good chat about whatever you fancy, but I could also be in for partying or dancing. I'm quite tidy as well.
