Father, Pedro Pablo, works in the commercial phone industry; mother, Graciela, is a pediatrician; sister, Catalina (one year older), works in general medicine.

A perfect day without tennis would include cooking and eating "as much as possible", relaxing at home with his girlfriend, family and dog 'Tango', and drinking Mate tea.
