I’ve been playing a game of jenga with regards to who I am since June 2019. I had a jenga tower - each piece a belief I held about myself or the world and as you do in the game of jenga, I pulled one block out and the whole tower collapsed, and I’ve been rebuilding it ever since.

I’ll tell you more about it when we meet :)

One thing I’ll say is I really like directness and vulnerability. Cut through the surface level bullshit and have a real conversation. If you’re into that, I think we could have some interesting conversations :)

***My Beliefs & Life Perspective***
If I had to pick 2 superpowers that, if every human aspired for, could change the world, it would be open mindedness and radical transparency (thank you Ray Dalio).

I’m not into corny quotes but there’s a couple that really strike a chord with me...

“The important thing is not to stop questioning” - Albert Einstein

“The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war” - Norman Schwarzkopf

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

First... why I’m NOT on Couchsurfing - I’m not using this as the traveler’s tinder, if I wanted that I would just use tinder :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing...
Initially I used couchsurfing as a surfer, I love getting to know people, and there’s nothing quite like getting to know a local in the place you’re staying.

Now I want to give back through hosting. I know what it’s like on the other side; traveling on your own, arriving in unfamiliar places, meeting new people, trying to stick to a budget. I get it. I want to help :) it would be nice if you could personalize your message. I, like many other hosts, want to get to know people, so please don’t treat this is an Airbnb/hotel.

Teach, Learn, Share

***Teach***
My dad was Argentinian and my mum is Brazilian - I speak Spanish, so if you’re looking to learn or improve I can help you mi amigo :) or you can help improve mine!

I love to dance Bachata so I could teach you some basic moves :)

***Learn***
I wanna know about you, what you believe, your culture, why you’re here, all the juicy stuff.

***Share***
Let’s share some time over a nice meal or coffee, what do ya say? :) I cook a mean roast chicken so if you’re into that we could make that happen ;P

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m super open minded and interested to hear what others want to say about “politically sensitive” topics. I’m super chilled, I like to cook, and maybe in the future I could help my hosts out with a bed like they’ve helped me :)
