Overview
About Me
Hi, im Juan, im a 28 year old argentinian guy. I can proudly say that i try everyday to be more awoken and to live the life i want to.,Im the tipical guy who tryes everything, i been a musician all my life, focusing mostly on percussion and drums, I also dedicate a good part of my life to plastic and visual arts, going from traditional canvas painting to muralism and escenography. Im a self produced worker, managing a small but complete workshop where kids from all ages come to paint. I professionaly studieded teaching and plastic arts, and im a science aficionado, im all about the cosmos and stuff, love phisics and biology aswell. I have, like I stated before, a lot of hobbies like longboarding, reading science fiction and fantasy novels, rehersing and playing whit any of my musical projects, or simply go to the park to train my body. Im also kinda a screen junkie when it comes to movies, i like to know about the directors, making off, and all that nerd stuff. I try to be open minded, and I embrace the esceptical mind and the critical thinking.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Even tho I dont prive myself of anything that I want to do, im kinda stationary, never moved to another residence or place, almost never left my country. My dad made sure to show me all the country in whitch i grew up, now is my time to know the world. During the fist long experiences traveling i figured that thats the way I vibrate in life, and the traveler life suits me perfect. Also Im convinced that traveling is the fastes and mos eficient way to adquire perspective, education, and consiousness.
