I studied architecture and I live in Vienna. I've been to a couple of countries and I get along with many different people. I like to talk about different topics, laugh, and lately I'm more into relaxed plans. Bicycles, movies, water and food are three key things in my life right now.
I'm also quite interested for cities and urban development.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Everything in life is better if you share it with someone. I like traveling and meeting people, exchanging experiences about travels and languages. I usually get to know people while traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: uh the list is quite long. The last favorites: Blue Is the Warmest Colour, Black Swan, Mia Madre... Some directors: Tarantino, Pedro almodovar, Darren Aronofsky, Documentaries...
Music, hmm, some jazz, some electronic music, some reggae, some salsa and cumbia and everything in-between. I'm mostly into fusions and not genres. And I think fusions represent the actual way the world is evolving, since music and arts are dynamic and not static.

Lately I only read academic books and news. Some time ago I studied literature and I read some greek literature, also latin american authors, some english and french literature as well. Since I'm against the classical cannon of literature, I jumped into movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing the Cerro Corcovado :)
Riding the bicycle around the Wörthersee :)
Learn German!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to talk, talk. Lately I read the news all the time. It is at the same time depressing but encouraging. I learned how to see the positive side of things and focus on facts that most of the people just ignore or are unable to grasp. For example: this is one of the most peaceful eras in the history, regardless of all the wars, attacks and horrible things that are happening.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, unfortunately I can't host anyone, since I don't have a couch right know. But I'm happy to show you around. Specially I like riding the bike in the city and I love cycling along the Danube.
