Hi, my name is Daphne 😊 I'm 19 years old, and currently an Au pair in Madrid. I love reading, tea/coffee, overcast days, photography, writing, and traveling. Personality wise I lean towards being an introvert, though I really enjoy getting to know new people. I love hearing about people's life stories, their views on current events/issues, and about their interests.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I'd really love the opportunity to travel more, and experience different cultures. Also I think this will push me out of my comfort zone more. Its very easy for me to just go somewhere on my own and be alone,Sometimes I can be too hesitant so id like to work on being braver and trusting my instincts more. And its more budget friendly. As much as I look at this as a cultural exchange and understand that its not a free hostel, I'm also not ignoring the fact that my funds from my summer jobs are drying up haha. That being said id say that I'm a pretty respectful house guest; I've spent the past seven months cohabitating with my host family, and then I've been on the other end as well when some extended family and strangers lived with my family for about a year and a half. 15 people under one roof, there are some stories there haha...
