Hi! I’m from Paraná, Entre Ríos, Argentina, and I’m currently living here. I’d describe myself as a calm, respectful (very respectful!), clean, and funny person. I enjoy both coffee and traditional Argentine mate — the stronger, the better! I love the mountains as much as the beach. I’m not into parties; I’m definitely on team paceful. I’m also a believer in God.

I’ve been playing electric guitar for years. I’ve had four rock and metal bands, and nowadays I play at the church I attend. I enjoy silence, but if you’re up for a deep and meaningful chat, count me in.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because travel changes your mindset. It’s not just about seeing new places, it’s about experiencing them through the people who live there. Couchsurfing connects you to the most authentic part of each place: its people. I was deeply inspired by those already living this travel lifestyle, and realized you don’t need to be rich to explore the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is a huge part of my life: I love rock and metal, though I’m open to other styles too. When it comes to movies and series, I enjoy suspenseful thrillers, especially the ones that leave you thinking afterward. Lately, I’ve been diving into books about personal growth and self-development.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This year I took my very first trip abroad: Salvador de Bahía, Brazil. It was such a powerful experience that it still moves me. When I came back, I knew my next destination would be Europe… and now it’s actually happening!

This journey became possible thanks to Matías Secchi (https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/matiassecchi)
and his amazing travel community, who showed me that it is possible to travel and that the world is full of good people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to play electric guitar or how to make a traditional Argentine asado. I love sharing what I know and learning from other people’s cultures, customs, languages… and recipes! I’m always excited to meet others who want to exchange real-life experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Above all: respect for your home, your space, and your time. I keep things clean and tidy. I enjoy cooking and can make traditional Argentine dishes like empanadas or asado. I can share music, stories, or just a peaceful, good vibes moment. I don’t smoke (and I really don’t like the smell of cigarettes), and I get along great with animals. In fact, I have a cat named Mora 🐱.
