About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Looking for new experiences and discovering the world.

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.
Actually, I am working for a cooperative in a social and agriculture project.
Je veux améliorer mon français. Ainsi, tous les francophones seront les bienvenus chez moi.

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.

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!

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 snorkelling in Brazil.
Skydiving in Costa Brava.
Every time I visit my parents in Argentina and taste my mother’s dishes and my father’s “asado”.
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.
