Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm about to begin a trip to Europe, and I`m really excited about the weekends i'll have free. I want to travel as much as i can, as far as i can, as long as i can. On the other han, I really love how couchsurfing works, and can't wait to start being part of this awesome community.
Music, Movies, and Books
Classic Rock in general, Argentine Rock and some bands of the recent hipster-movement is what i hear the most. I have developped a real phobia to raeggueton and bachata (you're lucky if you haven't heard that last one), but i am in general courious towards new bands and sounds. I don't watch too many movies, but in my top ten are surely movies by Tarantino, The Coen Brothers, Scorsese and Hitchcock. I read almost too much Cortázar, and like the most the latinamerican literature (that's ultimately the language im most comfortable in). Kerouac, Salinger and Poe would be my favorite american writers. I have read some of the classical european literature too, but mostly translated, which makes me think i have to read them again, in their original language. The rest is brought to me by my carreer: a LOT o philosophy, with a special mention to Wittgenstein, my platonic love :3
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach everything i know with certainty, and i will teach it if i have the opportunity. I want to learn everithing i don't know by now, so anything usefull/interesting that anybody can share with me is going to be great :D. Sharing is in many ways the thing I value the most.
My Interests
I spend a great deal of time reading and listening about the world and it's problems and possible solutions. As a philosophy student, i am easily distracted with anything, because almost everything is interesting to me. Nowadays im focused on the ethical discussion, wich I think is utterly important in a world where the different cultures, perspectives and values are overlapping and interacting in many new ways. I like to have fun too, though. I feel good when surrounded by nature, and have a strong love towards natural life. Manual works like woodworking or metalurgy have been always been very attractive to me, but i haven't had the opportunity of learning them. I love to sit down and have a good chat with interesting people, coffe and ciggarettes.
