Hi, I’m Alejandro — architect by day and slightly obsessed swimmer by nights 🏊♂️ I live in Arequipa and I have a special skill: making people feel comfortable even if they just crossed half the world and don’t know where their charger is. I swim almost every day (at least 2 km yes, voluntarily), because apparently that’s how I stay sane. I enjoy clever dark humor, meaningful conversations, and films that either make you think or leave a lasting emotional impact. I’m social, but I also respect personal space (especially after a long day). My English is intermediate, but my willingness to communicate is expert level. I live in a 9th-floor apartment in one of the best areas of Arequipa. It has a pretty epic volcano view from the balcony 🌋 (yes, it’s real). The place is comfortable, clean, and peaceful. I have two couches that turn into a decent queen-size bed — not a 5-star hotel, but definitely not a horror story. It’s a great place to rest, work, or just enjoy a good conversation with a view. Red flag: I wake up at 5am. Green flag: I don’t expect you to do the same. ig: aleroque18

Something I would tell my younger self is...
Stay single
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Because hotels are boring and the best stories don’t happen there. I’m here to meet real people, share real experiences, and create moments you can’t buy. Also, it’s always interesting to see someone experience your city for the first time.
Music, Movies, and Books
I do like Pop and The subtle art of not giving a f*ck
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I’ve worked on major projects like building a residential tower and a mall store, so yes, I can handle important decisions (like choosing good pizza too).
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to draw a very questionable Pokémon, it may not look right, but it will have personality. Also, I can share some basics about architecture, swimming discipline, and how to survive life with a bit of humor.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can share good energy, interesting conversations, and a relaxed, respectful vibe.
