About Me

I don´t want to define myself and be something fixed. I want to change as many times as necessary, until I become who I was at the beginning.

I´m interested in art. My research includes performance, installations, sounds and other media in site-specific works. I play experimental music, on my own and with a band of friends. I work with an art collective, participating in exhibitions and organizing performance festivals.

Recently I´ve been traveling for a couple of years dragging a heavy suitcase full of cables and electronic devices for making experimental music. Security guards at airports always thought it was a bomb. It hasn´t exploded yet.

Now I´m back in Montevideo and I will be happy to host travelers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interpersonal relations are so often mediated by monetary interests that I found very useful this platform that help us to meet people that think outside this capitalistic logic. Also is a great way to contact locals and avoid the touristic circuits.
