Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I absolutely can offer my air mattress. I could also be a city-guide to anyone new in Buenos Aires and I'm sure I can help anyone who want to practice some Spanish!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A couple of years ago a friend of mine invited me to a Couchsurfing barbecue in Rosario, Argentina (the city I was living in by that time). I met lot of really fun and outgoing people there so Couchsurfing got my curiosity!
Now I live in Buenos Aires and I would like to be an active member, helping people to get to know the city and, why not, offering my air mattress to spend the night.

Interests

My top-ten list begins with having a barbecue with my friends and family. Sounds silly, but being with people you love, sharing a meal is amazing for me.
Then it follows learning languages. I studied English for 11 years and now it's been a year since I started with Italian classes (I love it!!!!). I also studied French for a few months, but I think languages are not like riding a bicycle, as I DO forget how to do it if I don’t practice!!
Well, traveling is definitely on my top-ten list. I'm a very very curious person, so being in a foreign land, knowing new people and cultures is fantastic form me!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I remember I've hop on twelve roller-coasters in the same day...great thing to me, not so great to my stomach!

Teach, Learn, Share

Before going to live by myself, I lived a year and a half with a host family here in Buenos Aires. As they had an extra room they usually rented it to foreign people. Thanks to that I met lots of people from every world. I enjoyed showing them with the city, going out together, helping with the Spanish. Then I discovered that I can be a good amateur Spanish teacher!!! It is really easy for me to talk in Spanish with just a few words, making it very simple. So I'm sure I can help anyone who want to practice some Spanish.
Ohh, I also like doing "asados", the Argentinian barbecue, so I can also teach how to prepare one!
About learning, well, anything new catches my attention instantly: languages, cooking, science, history, you name it!
