Great job Juan,
I would like for you to practice the piece with your eyes closed and hear it like you are singing it.

Welcome Juan! And that was a nice presentation. You are keeping your fingers,except the pinky close to the fingerboards which I still can't do. (Naska! your comments please.) Please introduce yourself.

Juan, good choice of tune, and I like your playing. Your tone and intonation are good.
If I could just point out a few things : I think you need to work on your timing. In some places you slow down, others you speed up a little.
At 00'19 and 00'36, you are taking just a little bit too long executing those little ornaments, and as a you've effectively "stretched" the bar. At 00'42, you've done the opposite, and speeded up a little, and cut short the duration of that bar. You may not notice when playing by yourself, but an accompanist would.
Perhaps you could run through the tune along with a metronome to check your timing?
Once you have nailed that, then there's plenty room afterwards for expressive phrasing
I hope this helps. Keep up the good work!
