About Me

I came to Berlin in 2017. I lived in Buenos Aires for ten years before that, but I grew up in Empedrado, a little town in Corrientes, Argentina. That is pretty much all the places where you can find my criminal record :D

I am mostly two things in my life - I translate poetry and I write poetry. But since money is necessary to pay bills and actually eat food and drink at least some potable water, well, I work as a Spanish teacher and currently as a research assistant as well. I've studied Literature for a long time, in Buenos Aires in the UBA, and now in Berlin, where I am trying to finish a Masters in Comparative Literature.

I love eating and cooking. Always yearning for a new discovery.

History is one of my passions.

And my last big passion in this little list would be comedy, and humor in all its forms.

I should not forget to mention that I play basketball! (Yes, most of my friends don't believe me!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm kind of new in this couchsurfing world. I've started to travel not so long ago and I am enjoying it more and more everytime. So I think it would be nice to meet people as I travel. Just people who are truly authentic and don't need to wear a mask to be themselves (:

Music, Movies, and Books

Music!
Since The Beatles (big fan) to progressive rock and reggae and caribbean music, latinamerican folk music, rock n' roll and Opera . I've listened to many things and I enjoyed them all. I enjoy electronic music as well! Particularly synthwave and pop from the 80's.

Books!
I read mostly poetry and history books. Sometimes short stories. Occasionally a novel. But mostly poetry, plays, history, philosophy and essays.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got four books published, and two translations (:

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach Spanish for a living as well, so that is probably one of the best things I can offer (:
