About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To know as much and need as little as possible

ABOUT ME

When still a kid I decided I wanted to retire at age 30 and I've almost managed to do so. Thus I have plenty of time to travel or to host people visiting.

I love showing around the region where I live, so if you're visiting, please contact me.

I have some business going on in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and I spend there more time every year. From now on, I expect I'll be living six months there (November to April) and six months in Spain (May to October).

PHILOSOPHY

No matter what you do, you can't get many more days to live, but you can make so much more out of every single one of the ones you have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately, when at my home town I can't offer any accommodation. When in Buenos Aires, it depends. But anyway, I have managed to live without a job so I have plenty of free time to show my region around if you like.

Interests

I guess that I'm interested in almost everything. Always willing to learn something knew and to share what I already know.

  • flying
  • traveling
  • business

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies, I feel impossible to list just a few but if you want to know what I like, check the IMDB Top 250: www.imdb.com/chart/top. I've enjoyed most of them.

I love many classic novels (there is usually a good reason for them being classics). I also enjoy reading marketing and business books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

The most important think I can share -from own experience- is that you're probably wrong about what you need to get what you would like. There's almost always an easier way.

I'm trying to learn Italian, I'd love to practice.
