I moved from San Francisco, California to Madrid to be an English teaching assistant for the community of Madrid. I'm laid-back, curious, a tad bit awkward, and generally open to trying new things. I have lived in Madrid for nearly two months and feel I have an incredible amount to learn. I find myself constantly excited to experience new traditions and explore new cities in a place that is so far from home.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I'd like to meet people who have a love for their city and who might be willing to tell me a little bit about the culture and lifestyle of the area. I am also on a teacher's budget so traveling economically is my goal for this year. I would like to go everywhere and see everything and often this is much more enjoyable with other people, specifically locals who are willing to share their experiences and their couches :)

Lehren, lernen, teilen

General knowledge of physiotherapy and acupressure massage, information about places I've visited, decent cooking and baking skills if you'd like to cook together.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Information about American (California) life and culture and stories of past adventures. I can also bring a few books if you'd like to read in English. Eventually a couch in either Oregon or California when I move back to the states :)
