Rodra here!
I'm an Argentinian raised bilingual.
I'm into all things systems-thinking, non-bypassing wellness, nature, linguistics, anthropology, social justice.
I'm travelling around NZ this April learning about sustainability before heading back to Argentina.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've stayed in backpacker hostels for 4 years now, and would like to try something different!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Toured deep into THE 500-year-running Bolivian silver mine of Potosi that kick$tarted Western civilization in South America, only to find, deep within it, a life-size statue of the Devil "el Tío" covered in offerings; an appraise that the enslaved indigenous started only when Europeans warned them that if they didn't work their tough 16 daily hours through, the Devil would pull them under. They were told the darkness would take their life, so to darkness they started giving offerings.
I thought the story was mind-blowing.
