About Me

From Buenos Aires, Argentina. I came to the US as an Au Pair in 2016. Since then, I have lived in NY and currently Atlanta. I work in marketing, study acting & have side businesses in entertainment event productions.

Authentic, extrovert, empath, nerd of arts & humanities. I consider myself a loyal & supportive friend (friendship is top-priority in my country and the value I miss the most about my culture)

Superficial small talk drains my soul, lol. I usually struggle to connect with people that are limited to that.

Passionate about many things, but also just passionate in general 🇦🇷❤️‍🔥

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I grew up listening to my mom’s stories of her traveling, meeting wonderful people and living her best life. She’s raised me to be free, independent & open minded; & always encouraged me to travel. It’s simply not the same to stay by yourself in a hotel or airbnb as having the chance to meet and connect with locals. In a world where they want us to be divided, I think it’s key to have a community like CS, to leave prejudices behind and to give others the opportunity to surprise us! When we are exposed to the new, different and unknown we’re also revealing new part of ourselves that we would’ve never discovered if we had stayed in our comfort zones.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Even though I didn’t know anyone in Atlanta, I’ve spent the last few years trying to make it feel more like home by building communities for Latinos in Atlanta through some cool initiatives in arts & entertainment while helping Hispanic artists grow their careers.
