I'm an exchange student in Graz, Austria. I'm studying Information Management and I'd also like to know lots of different cities within Austria and Europe. I love to travel, discovering new music and movies in different languages, but most importantly learn about new cultures, their history and meeting new people that think the same way as me. I also love to try new beers from all over the world and I also collect bottles from all the countries I visit. This is started as a simple hobby, but now it has become sort of a memory collection because I remember where I drank the beer and with whom, so this reminds me why life is awesome.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started on CouchSurfing because someone told me about it and I got interested so I gave it a shot. After my first experiences, I discovered that CouchSurfing is something truly amazing. What can be better than discovering a city through a local's eyes? Nothong. I love travelling, but sometimes I think that tourism destroys part of the true esence of the city and by just doing the touristic recommendations you are missing a big part of what the city has to offer...so I'm on CouchSurfing to discover the real essences of cities and countries that I visit, with the help of a local.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love metal music, but I also enjoy a lot of progressive and rock music; but I'm not closed to that and I like to listen to other kinds of music while hanging out with other people, specially if they're in other languages and have traditional sounds mixed with modern music. As for movies, I really like european, latin american a and asian movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Starting a beer bottle collection (I have more than 45 from more than 10 countries) and daring to go to the Foo Fighters concert in Cracow just by myself to a country I didn't know much. Best experience ever.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach and share about my small and awesome country. Costa Rica is very unknown to lots of people so I would like to teach as much as I can about it and make people get interested in visiting it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach spanish if wanted and talk about my small and awesome country. I can also take some candy that I brought with me, not much, but I have some left. Buy some beers from the supermarket and local food and take back to the appartment to share it with a good conversation and saving those bottles for my collection.
