About Me

24 year old girl trying to step out of her comfort zone to satisfy her hunger to see the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find Couchsurfing as a great opportunity to meet new people and approach the cultures of the countries I'm traveling to in a closer. I tend to be a shy girl, so I also see it as a great opportunity to work on my social skills and show myself that there is nothing to be afraid of.

Interests

Meeting new people, live different cultures, share life experiences, see the world, step out of my comfort zone, make new friends. But mainly live to the fullest and stop postponing my dreams.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music: britpop, classic rock, a bit of grunge, not so much hardcore stuff; I can bear electronic music, rap, hip hop, but their not the type of music I listen to for aural pleasure. Lately I've been listening to the 80’s one hit wonders..

My favorite movie is Billy Elliot. I also like Fight Club, Trainspotting, Submarine, The Libertine. I am always open to see any type of movie as long as I have good company.

Talking about books, I really like dystopian novels, 1984 by George Orwell and Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury introduced me to this quite interesting genre. I must say, too, that I am a fan of the Harry Potter saga.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was born and I managed to survived and dare and live!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an English as a foreign language teacher, I love learning languages and teaching Mexican Spanish slang (so much fun). I'm good at cooking, it would be my pleasure to make some real Mexican food to my hosts.

I am open to learn about everything and anything!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my great sense of humor, my light spirit, my cooking skills, and good conversations.

Countries I’ve Lived In
