About Me

Born in Buenos Aires. I hold double nationality(🇦🇷🇭🇷), and I'm a certified tour guide. Currently doing an enology course, studying hotel management and rural tourism.

I love to travel, exploring new places and new people. I have found that couch surfing is a great app to meet locals but also save you when you least expect it.

Gastón Is my boyfriend. He also holds double nationality (🇦🇷🇧🇬). He is a biker of the Honda Shadow Argentina riding club. His bike of choice is the Honda Shadow 1300cc.

We already done 3 big trips with it: Chilesito, La Rioja (1160km)
Puerto Iguazú, Misiones (1250km)
Cacheuta, Mendoza (1116km)

We live together at an apartment in Tigre (Northern neighbourhood of Buenos Aires) with my two cats Vlado and Bujia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting new people and learning their culture. its a good experience to share different things because It helps to expand your knowledge about the world.

I think that spending time with your host/surfer is one of the points of this app and you start finding out that couchsurfing is a place where you can meet new friends and future travel partners.

I love traveling and the idea of getting out of my comfort zone. Its a thrill and a challenge. I find out that meeting other couchsurfers not only gives me a perspective of what the world is about, but also, the courage to keep trying and pushing myself a little further.

Teach, Learn, Share

The more I get to travel and work in different environments, the more stories I get to tell to those that are willing to listen.

I would like to learn new languages like mandarin Chinese, keep training myself in search and rescue techniques and some day be able to drive my own motorcycle.

With my boyfriend we want to drive different roads around the world. Always on a motorcycle, camping and out of our comfort zone.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think company and storytelling is the best thing to share with a host.
