Alvaro is a very cool person, very smart, experienced and friendly. We talked a lot and it was always interesting to listen to him and study, he really knows a lot, and ready to share the information with people. I would talked to him more and more!
So, if he is so perfect, why my refference is just neutral?
Unfortunately, staying with him wasn't very comfortable for me (even he let me use some facilities of his residence like swimming pool). Sleeping on the floor just with blankets and pillow without any bed linnen was not so hard as waking up at 6 am to leave the appartment with him (according to his rules). And sometimes I couldn't return to his house untill 10 pm, and had to wait outside. And somehow he made me feel guilty for this (coming so late), even obviously it wasn't my fault, I just waited when he could open the door. For travelers is really necesary to have some rest, to sleep sometimes. And honestly it was my first experience like this.
Anyway, I appreciate his kindness and hospitality, especially when I arrived very late to his house in the first night (some delays in the travel).
And would love to meet him again, as a good friend.
