I am an English teacher living and working in Barcelona. I am originally from Southern California.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to make the most of my time here in Europe by traveling as much as possible (on a student budget)! I love meeting new people from different cultures and backgrounds and I believe that the best way to truly experience a new place is to meet locals and go off the beaten path. I want to seek out a deeper level of cultural understanding that I think can only be reached by experiencing places through the eyes of people who are passionate about sharing their love of their hometowns.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love live music! Some of my favorite genres are indie, hip-hop, edm, rnb, jazz, and soul. I like to play a lot of The Weeknd, Banks, Major Lazer, Beyonce, and Cashmere Cat.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a month wilderness backpacking through the canyons of Utah! It was the most challenging and liberating experience of my life. Every day I remind myself of the personal strength I discovered on that crazy adventure and that the only way to continue growing is to push myself beyond my comfort zone.

What I Can Share with Hosts

English! I'm a native speaker and I would be happy to share a coffee and conversation with someone who wants to practice speaking English. I also love cooking and exchanging recipes.
