ABOUT ME

Such a difficult question to ask and answer. I find the simple questions to be the most difficult. What could I say that´s honest, simple, and revealing of me? Should I start with a mundane approach to break the ice? No, I´ll save small talk for another time. Really though this is a bad question. First person narration is notoriously inaccurate. We´ll leave this section to a bit of mystery.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting new people. Also entering the space of someone´s place fascinates me. Check out ¨Carta a una señorita en Paris¨ by Cortazar, he explains it pretty well.
