Personal Description

I studied classical music in a conservatoire, I'm something named soprano for the people.
In the other hand, I like the hard rock, heavy and power metal since I was 12 years old, the music has saved my life, literally...
And, you know, Im from Buenos Aires and I sings tango as well...yes...a metal head soprano that sings tango...I know I know...but, who can scape to the Carlitos Gardel's charm????

N o t e : I CAN GET LOST IN MY OWN ROOM.
Please, please! Don't try to explane me how to go to some place with that piece of paper called map, that's ok for any regular traveler, but me! I believe there was a fault or a mistake in the "factory" when I was born, and I just don't have that part of the brain.
No one in Buenos Aires can understand how I came so far away in my trips...

Escucho la Rock & Pop desde que tengo 11 años y Alejandro Dolina desde mis 19, esto explica mi vocabulario y mi extraño sentido del humor...

I love and respect the Mother Earth and the whole Nature's Kingdom, visible and invisible... if you have never seen a gnome or a fairy, just means that you are not able to see them YET, but the time will come...
Photobucket
Ahhh...to see the magic in the nature, the perfect center of the flowers... the message that the trees have to give us, to listen the music of the wind, the whisper of the forest, the power of the storms!! to smell the freshness of the night...

Other worlds, beings of light, Angels, Indigos, Crystals, Erks, The Flower of Life, the Sacred Geometry, the ancient prophecies, Antlantis, Pleyades... This planet is a big school, I know im here just to learn. THERE ARE NOT ACCIDENTS, so, if you are in my road, is cos you must be...

The music...I believe THE MUSIC governs the entire Universe, everything has rithm: the seasons, the love, the life, the heart, the planets, the words...

YOU ARE M U S I C !!

KEY TO THE UNIVERSE - Timo Tolkki (Stratovarius)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNn82xpCFMw

"We are the same everywhere
We just want to be loved.
We are confused, we are scared.
Still we have to find our own way.
Life's not always very easy.
There are times when it all feels black,
but I tell you, there is always a way"

And the key to the universe is love
And this key could free the mankind
Trust yourself
The voice within will guide you on your path of life
The key to the universe is love..."

Mhhhhh, more? what else about this argentinaen girl???...
I don't smoke and I never did.
 I don't drink much alcohol, just cyder in some ocations, and white wine, you know, girl stuff...
I'm a passionate vegan and activist when I have the opportunity, before I was just a vegetarian until I opened my eyes to the horror of the dairy and eggs industry, including all the abuses that humans do to animals every single day, in an era in which is unnecessary the cruelty for living. (circuses, rodeos, racing dogs and horses, blood sports hunting foxes and hares  etc). Only REAL LOVE and RESPECT for life and your HOME-PLANET  can change the things once for all and bring us to the next level of evolution and light.

“Animals share with us the privilege of having a soul.”
  Pythagoras circa 570 - 500 B.C.


NOTE: I feel uncomfortable being around a religious mantis, it's a cute soft green insect, but why do they stare at me?

I'm very bad holding crystal or glass things, any of this stuff in my hands wont have a good destiny.

I like the yelow bananas.

Losing CouchSurfers in the streets of Buenos Aires. Sorry about it guys! But i am the worst tour guide ever! :/

CouchSurfing Experience

Incluyendo al salame de tincho!!

Interests

Everything that can keep me awake for more than half an hour and ice cream (non dairy, of course!)

"If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.

When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing.

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life... "

Philosophy

"I know it's illegal, but I don't think it's wrong,"

What do these numbers mean?

This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.

In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.

When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.

If you stay with Lorenna or host her you will be delighted to her her morning vocal warm-ups. Like a bird! :) She introduced me to some great music in my own city and has quite the ear for new artists. A compassionate vegan, she knows a lot about nature and cats and can talk for hours. Better than a radio! Ver de nuevo algún día mi amiga!

Lorenna is a great person! Although she was very busy organising her move and practising for a concert the days of my stay, Lorenna hosted me for some days and helped me with finding the right busses and places. I felt very comfortable at her place! Muchísimas gracias por todo!

Lorena stayed with us for a while and made herself at home with ease. Although I only properly met her recently I've heard her singing opera on the streets of Galway for years!

Met up with the Argentinian girl with a golden voice in Paris. Bumped into one another at a couchsurfing meeting and she gave me a big hug when she found out I was Scottish - lovely, warm and friendly. Did our best to meet up a few times after that but only managed once - nice night watching some Argentinian music.
