Overview
About Me
📍Currently in Montevideo
Before you send me a message: I prefer hosting people who have already hosted themselves. If you surfed 50 times but hosted 0 times, I will most likely not reply to your message.
10 weird facts about me:
1) I hate butter :(
2) My moustache looks like Salvador Dali's.
3) I used to say I didn't like rice and I was "ideologically" against it, until I succumbed to sushi and Indian food.
4) My main hobby nowadays is sewing. I have a sewing machine and create clothes all the time.
5) I try to only eat healthy food but I have a big weakness: mayonnaise.
6) I can eat a lemon without making funny faces
7) I haven’t drunk Coca-Cola since 2012. I even forgot why. Lol.
8) I think pigeons and frogs are the most adorable animals in the universe (I have both of them tattooed)
9) I have a Cyrillic F tattoed on my hand. It's a reference to the "Press F to pay respects" meme.
10) Sometimes I feel like I'm 80 years old and I love to go feed ducks
Less irrelevant information:
25 years old. Bachelor in Communication (UdelaR). Master's in Strategic Communication (Universitat Rovira i Virgili)
I consider myself funny, and really sarcastic, my sense of humour gets feed by dank memes and shitposting (lol). Even though this, I have a serious face most of the time haha.
I love learning new things and having conversations exchanging about our cultures with people from other parts of the world. I’m very open-minded and hate prejudices.
Also, experiencing different cultures from the inside is maybe what I like most in life. Thanks couchsurfing.
Some of my hobbies and passions:
* As I said before, I love sewing
* I play the bass
* I'm a meme expert, I know almost everything about memes and also make them. I'm a memelord.
* I love learning about cultures, history and linguistics all the time.
* I love playing chess (my elo is 1300 on blitz) and I used to teach the kids in my neighborhood how to play it.
* I go to the gym three times a week
I’ve been on couchsurfing since I’m 18 and I’ve hosted people from all over the world, most of them at my parents house in San Carlos but also in Montevideo. I have been hosted too in Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Spain, Romania and Serbia. Thanks to couchsurfing I have met a lot of incredible people.
