My name is Linda Artola and I'm a 100% born and race nicaraguan. I moved to the capital of the world, New York, in 2012 and now I can tell that this crazy city is my second home. I work as a freelance journalist, translator, band manager, event producer, baby sitter, etc, etc... (it's an expensive city and I need to survive and also get to travel every time I can!) I looooove going to concerts, riding my bike to the beach, eat food that I never tried before, talking to people in the street, dancing whenever and wherever there's good music, among other things :) I WANT TO TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD!!!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
I'm on Couchsurfing because I think this is a great platform to connect with people from around the world and because it offers a more local way to get to know a country and its people. I'm pretty new on Couchsurfing, but I'm always hosting friends and friends of friends, so this is like taking another step into this experience.

Una cosa increíble que he hecho
