Overview
About Me
Wanderer, dreamer, and seeker of the next horizon. Originally from San Francisco, I left Buenos Aires a decade ago to follow a feeling—and Europe became home. Along the way, I traveled, studied, and slowly wove together a life that feels like mine. These days, you’ll find me in Prague, working, exploring, and sharing quiet moments with my dog, Leki.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because some of the most meaningful moments happen when strangers become stories. I'm here to connect beyond the surface,: to share meals, perspectives, laughter, and maybe a few directions that don’t involve Google Maps. Couchsurfing, for me, isn’t just about a place to stay, it’s about the people who make a place unforgettable.

Music, Movies, and Books
My taste tends to drift between moods, places, and memories.
Music: Anything that tells a story: Bob Dylan, Florence + the Machine, Nick Drake, Bon Iver, Fado on rainy mornings, and the occasional 90s throwback when nostalgia kicks in.
Movies: I love films that linger like Before Sunrise, In the Mood for Love, Amélie, and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Anything by Wong Kar-wai or Richard Linklater.
Books: I’m drawn to poetic prose and soul-searching narratives. Favorites include The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Just Kids, Norwegian Wood, The Prophet, and anything by Ocean Vuong or Joan Didion.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Paragliding over the turquoise waters of Ölüdeniz, Turkey. Leaping off the cliffs of Babadağ Mountain felt like stepping off the edge of the world
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you a few things about digital marketing, working remotely, and navigating life as an expat in Europe. I’d love to learn about your culture, your favorite local spots, and anything you're passionate about—whether it’s music, philosophy, or a recipe passed down in your family. And what I can always share is good conversation, travel stories, playlists for any mood, and hopefully a bit of laughter over a coffee or wine.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A warm spirit, respectful presence, and a genuine curiosity for connection. I’m happy to cook a meal, share stories from life between continents, and bring good energy into your space. Whether it’s exchanging music, helping with English or marketing tips, or just enjoying a simple moment together, I believe the small things create the best memories.
