About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore as much of the world as possible.

ABOUT ME

City dweller with a passionate interest in exploring the world, humans and generally life. I have a fairly strong social conscience, but want to spend more time doing something, no matter no small; I like to believe I'm slightly artistic, but apart from several years learning the drums, and watching as many movies as I can, I lack proof. I can come across as perhaps cynical and negative, someone who gets pissed off too easily over trivial stuff; To others I'm probably too much of an idealist. Explain that one. I Love the energy of an urban environment - the rush of people and character of a bunch of humans crammed into a concrete bowl - but the beauty of nature as well. I'll defend my argument in a debate to the death if I believe it to be right; If its wrong I hope I don't.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm willing to live these forthcoming years as intensely as I can. I found out travelling is one of my biggest plasures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new at this webpage. I'd like to travel as much as I can, I see in these years the opportunity, since I'm young and healthy. I believe the mandkind's knowlegde is hiding behind every suburb of the cities around the world, and I'm willing to take a look at them.

Music, Movies, and Books

As music concerns, I'm a huge rock fan. I love english and argentinian rock music, especially old bands like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple. There's also place for contemporary artists like Arctic Monkeys and The Strokes.

I have recently discovered Woody Allen's art and I must say I'm in love with him, love his view about life, death and human relationships. I'm also keen on argentinian movies and hollywood clasics, as well as Tarantino's art.

In literature, I must admit there's a lot to be discovered (not to say I haven't read as much as I'd like to) but I've enjoyed some popular books like The Millenium Trylogy, or my country's classics, like Cortázar o Borges.

Teach, Learn, Share

Due to my short age, I have little to teach, but lot to learn. As for my little to teach, I'd like to show people around the world what is like to be argentinian, show them typical foods and our culture, which is underrated all over the world.
