Hey I'm Emily and I love to travel. I studied biology and Spanish at University and fell in love with Spain when I studied abroad in Sevilla. Now I'm teaching English in Madrid at primary schools. I also really love arugula and plants. I'm a dog person and allergic to cats but my favorite animal is a lion... also I love elephants. If I could have any super power I would teleport. If you have any questions about my superpowers or animal preferences we can talk.
