Hi! My name is Eden. I don't have much experience with couch surfing but my family has hosted many couch surfers. I grew up with the norm of having strangers in my home. Before couch surfers, we had exchange students and before that the occasional friend. I loved having guests who filled our home with their travel stories and favorite meals. I always dreamed of creating my adventures as these guests did. And now I am embarking on them. I love to cook and try many different recipes from other cultures. I enjoy hiking, swimming, and dancing and I could listen to music for hours (always looking for suggestions). I enjoy meeting new people and strongly believe that "a stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet" (yestheory). I am clean, quiet and a positive person with a love for the building of friendships across the world. I love to use Couch surfing as a cheaper way to travel but also as a way to see new places through the eyes and ways of locals.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing
I am currently studying abroad in Spain and my time is coming to an end. I want to have some time to travel and figured couch surfing would be an affordable and fun way to do so! Couch surfing offers me unique experiences, a place to stay and cultural immersion, the most important to me when traveling. It matters more to me the people and energies I surround myself with than the place I go.

Uma Coisa Incrível Que Já Fiz
21-day backpacking trip in New Mexico. It was a program called Rayado, with the motto of "Expecting the Unexpected". Everyday was its own adventure and taught me a lot about what i am capable of :)) Moved to Germany during a global pandemic. 4 months in the French alps, partying, snowboarding and working with kids on holiday! Created some of the best memories ever. Solo traveled around Western Europe for a month & 1/2: Paris, Zurich/Lachen, Rive del Garda, Munich, Cologne, Gent, London Flying a plane in Versailles (with a certified pilot of course😆) Took a Social Psychology class in Spanish with only an A1 level in Spanish
Ensinar, Aprender, Compartilhar
I can teach you how to do a headstand. I want to learn how to make a favorite/common dish from your culture, country, family. I would love to repay this by doing the same :) If you speak Spanish I would love to practice I am by no means an excellent artist, but I love to be creative and will happily paint or draw you something!
O Que Posso Oferecer aos Hosts
I can make some mean banana, chocolate muffins and I weirdly enjoy organizing/cleaning (if you have a project in your home, a pile of unorganized papers, a shelf of art supplies, unorganized Tupperware...I'm your girl). I am by no means an excellent artist, but I love to be creative and will happily paint or draw you something! Share stories and culture
