CURRENT MISSION Age is an attitude! That's because now I'm +50. I would like to continue discovering the world and adding new experiences. Before contacting me, you have to know that I DON'T LIVE IN BARCELONA CITY (50KM AWAY SOUTH DIRECTION - between 1h-1.30h in public transport). If I receive a message about visiting Barcelona without mentioning that I I've in Penedès, the message will be automatically refused. Trying to conserve couchsurfing initial spirit from a dating app tendency. Knowing new cultures and traditions; share conversations, a meal, a coffee, a glass of wine/beer with your host or guest; practicing sports; discovering cities or landscapes; get recommendations from local people; exchange languages and travel experiences) ABOUT ME I was born in San Martín, northwestern great Buenos Aires. And I raised between there and my mother's town, San Antonio de Areco (a traditional and nice place 100 km away from the city). After leaving the university, I experienced a deep recession in my country, and I decided to begin a new life in Catalonia. I have lived in Vilafranca del Penedès since 2001. I am a social person, and I try to enjoy the little pleasures of life. I love to visit new places and cities using couchsurfing. I love to travel and to meet people from different countries, to exchange experiences and to know about their lives and culture. I like to discover landscapes around with my mini camper van. I worked for almost four years in a cooperative, social, and agriculture project. In January 2026 , I started a new position in a little family company near home. Je veux améliorer mon français. Ainsi, tous les francophones seront les bienvenus chez moi. IG: @el_bolut PHILOSOPHY To keep thinking, dreaming, and making memories

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I hosted some travellers at home and I have lived great moments abroad sharing good time with people that host me. I have discovered some amazing no tourist places with local people.
Music, Movies, and Books
All kind of music but some of them not in excess All movies except war issues. Non commercial ones. Books are not my passion but I try
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Barcelona marathon in 2012. The first time I was encircled by little dishes snorkeling in Floripa-Brazil. Skydiving in Costa Brava-Catalunya. The first night in my flat. Danced a folkloric ball for the party of my adoption town. Three months backpacking through South America. Bought a mini campervan during the pandemic to travel around freely. J'ai cuisiné des crêpes chez des Français.

My Interests
I like music, cinema, photography, party, practicing sports (running, swimming, tennis, cycling)and warm weather. I enjoy discovering new places and going out with friends. As a good argentine guy with Italian surnames, I like to cook handmade pasta, asados and to taste typical dishes from every place I visit. And don't forget a glass of wine for the right moment!
