About Me

I’m passionate about outdoor life and sports. I play football (soccer!), padel, squash and tennis — basically, if it involves a ball and some competition, I’m in. I love staying active and sharing that energy with others.

Nature is a big part of who I am. I work with trees and truly believe they make cities and people’s lives better. If you stay with me, chances are we’ll end up talking about trees at some point (I promise I’ll try not to be too nerdy about it 😄).

I also love discovering new foods and flavors. I enjoy cooking, trying different cuisines, sharing meals, and having long conversations over a glass of wine or a cold beer. I’m curious, open-minded, and always happy to hear stories from different cultures and perspectives.

For me, the best part of traveling (or hosting) is the human connection — the conversations that start simple and end up being unforgettable.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of cultural exchange — sharing experiences, stories, food, sports, and maybe even exploring nature together. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing some football, trying local food, or just chatting about life, I truly enjoy connecting with people from different backgrounds.

Hosting (or being hosted) is not just about a place to sleep — it’s about creating a small shared experience that both sides remember.

If you’re open-minded, respectful, and enjoy good conversations, outdoor activities, or sharing a drink after a long day of exploring — we’ll probably get along great

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ran around in the snow in Finland at -15°C wearing only a swimsuit. Cold. Crazy. Totally worth it

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share one of Argentina’s most beautiful traditions: mate.
Not just the drink, but the ritual — sitting together, passing the mate around, slowing down, talking about life. It’s simple, but it creates real connection.
If you’re curious, I’d love to prepare mate for you and explain how it works. Warning: it’s strong, a little bitter… and very addictive.
