CURRENT MISSION Learn how to make the perfect Risotto ABOUT ME I come from Portland, Oregon and I moved to Madrid to teach english and gain life experiences. I'm 23 and just graduated from university with a degree in Business administration and Spanish. I'm very active and love the outdoors (hiking, kayaking, running). I'm passionate about cooking (and eating), reading, and traveling. I love being outdoors. PHILOSOPHY Just because you turn the oven up to 800 degrees doesn't mean that your cake will bake twice as fast. Be patient.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love meeting new people and experiencing local cultures. Hostels are fun, but I really care about meeting local people and seeing how they live. I love trying different foods (and drinks) and couchsurfing is the best way to make that happen.
Music, Movies, and Books
I'm an avid reader and will try to have my nose in a book any chance I get. I love A Song of Ice and Fire (and Game of Thrones) and will take any opportunity to talk about it. Some of my favorite authors are Jack London, Brandon Sanderson, and Ernest Hemingway. My favorite music is R&B, anything from current hits (Frank Ocean) to more historic artists (Marvin Gaye). But really I will listen to anything. Always trying to expand my horizons.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I hiked the Camino de Santiago (twice).
What I Can Share With Hosts
I love to cook (and learn new recipes), discussions about books and movies, and drinking good beer. I'm always happy to teach and learn new recipes.
