About Me

I was born in Buenos Aires where I lived almost all my life. I moved to Spain in 2022 and since I work freelance I love to travel and explore new places and meet people around here. I have studied music and film. I spent most of my time doing music. As a composer for ads, sound designer for theater plays, films, art exhibitions, a bit of everything related to music and sound.
I've used CS a lot many many years ago when I lived in Buenos Aires and met wonderful people through it. Some of them still friends. And suddenly I remembered it still exists so I came back here :-) I've also been using TrustedHouseSitters a lot in Europe, taking care of pets in exchange for accommodation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

After offering my comfortable couch and sometimes a much more comfortable bed in my home in Buenos Aires for some years, now I'm moving around Europe and looking forward to connect with nice people and crash their couches for some days :-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I can honestly say I only met wonderful people through Couchsurfing. I don't know if I'm being lucky...
Shinjoo stayed here for a week, Ieva came all across the ocean right to my place, Farah from Wales was here, I also met Lulú and Anastasia through CS. French pal Martin was our last visit.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- I've won a 15 kilos Serrano ham leg in a riffle in a pub in the north of Spain while on a road trip with my family. We had to took it with us on the car obviously. The whole car stinked after a day but it made us happy for the next two weeks of travel :-)
- I've crossed from Argentina to Chile in an old ripped car. Driving for two days. Amazing trip. One of the best landscapes ever seen.
