About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to keep life from being what happens while you're bussy making plans... And learning to be an acrobat!

ABOUT ME

I come from Rafaela (Argentina), when I was 16/17 I did an exchange year in Australia with AFS, then started studying Civil Engineering in Rosario, where I lived for 8 years. In the meanwhile I went to Germany for 6 months with a scholarship in 2011/2012. I really like Rosario, it's a great city to live in and I really enjoyed all my time there. Currently I'm really into acrobatics!!!

Little things that I like:
- running (not just in a sportly way, but also with no reason and anywhere -- just sometimes)
- swimming
- pockets (in my jackets, in my bags)
- finding coins in the street
- family meals
- laugh attacks

About my personality... some people tell me that I'm strange or weird, but that probably depends on how much time you spend with me and situations. I try to be practical and find easy solutions. I like going out too, specially if I'm not home, a city at night ist something completely different to see! I enjoy meetings where you can actually chat and really meet people. I'm not a big fan of discos really, but I join the party when that's what to do with the evening.

PHILOSOPHY

No es lindo lo que es lindo, sino lo que a mi me gusta.
It's not beautiful what beautiful is, but what I like is beautiful.
Es ist nicht schön, was schön ist, sondern was ich mag.
Non é bello quello che é bello, ma quello che mi piace.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm leaving Rosario in Dec 2014 and I still don't know where I'm staying next yet, all I know is that I'll be around Europe.. Hopefully I find somewhere where I can host people!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did couchsurfing for the first time with a friend of mine (I didn't have an account yet, but she did) in Sweden and then I decided to join the community... I hosted 2 guys in Germany and stayed with CSers in Switzerland, Austria and Italy, all good experiencies.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies, I used to watch a lot, but later I had no tv or internet for a long while and lost the habit really...

Music, I listen to what people recommend me most of the times, when I like it, I keep listening to it every now and then.. I used to be a Beatlemaniac.

Books, I do not read much, but I like short stories to "kill wastes of time" on the bus or the train.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I really like nature... the best things that I've seen are defenitely landscapes.. the Cataratas waterfalls, the Andes (mountain chain), Ayers Rock, the desert and the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, climbing the Champaqui mount in Cordoba (Argentina) was also wonderful, and of course, the beaches of Brasil are beautiful.
And I'm sure there's more (and not least), but those are the ones that I can think of now.

Teach, Learn, Share

Mate, mate, mate...
Walking around whichever city I'm in.
Going out...
Whatever comes up on the way really! Not easy to predict. =)
