About Me

I was born in Argentina in 1984, in the surroundings of Buenos Aires. When I was 5, my parents, my brother and I, moved to a small city in Florida (USA) where my father did his doctorate.
When back to Argentina, I studied until i finished my university (software engineering) at UBA (University of Buenos Aires)
I practiced gymnastics for 6 years and also joined an amateur theatre group with whom I played 4 musicals during 3 years
In 2013, my couple proposed me to move to Barcelona, and here we are. Working in Lemonade software development as project manager and office director. Currently working on some projects for the European Commission and in the education sector.

My couple and I love to travel together. Many of the countries we've visited in (and around) Europe were long weekend trips. Normally when we travel together we stay in hotels or Airbnbs. I hope at some point we can start using couchsurfing for these trips too

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why not?
I lately started finding the cities similar. All the same stores, all the same souvenir, the same food, etc.
I think that visiting cities with locals brings in a completely different experience.
I'm happy to be that person that can share you the city gems of Barcelona, and I hope you can be the one that shows me those in your town

Music, Movies, and Books

Pop i would say. But except for reggaeton I think I like all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are some musicals that I can tell the whole script by hard. Does it count?

Also played 33 escape rooms in 5 different countries escaping from all in time

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm passionate about teaching software languages to non-IT people. Also gymnastics, but it is a bit harder to get the materials to do so (except we are on a sandy beach)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a very respectful guest, calm, passionate about my work and IT in general. People I meet often say I'm not the typical Argentinian. If that is good or not I let you decide :)
