Hola couchsurfing community! I'm Fraser, a 24 year old English Language Teacher searching for new work in Medellin. I'd like to think of myself as a sociable person, as I love to meet new people and share new experiences. I'm passionate about music and listening to all manner of different music styles and tastes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I went travelling with my now girlfriend and her friend around Japan two years ago. Both of them were using couchsurfing, and absolutely rated it. I think it's a fantastic way of connecting people from around the world and allowing people to form relationships they otherwise would not have. When I have a place of my own, I would love to host people aswell as being a surfer.

Interests

As I said above, I love music (listing my favourite artists is too difficult, I would say I have an avid appreciation for: Hip-Hop, Jazz, Rock & Blues, various types of Electronic, Classical, Easy listening, Pop). As a recently graduated Economics student, I like to keep up with current affairs in the UK political climate, and enjoy talking about how the global economic systems influence society. I enjoy a variety of sports, particularly running, football, and tennis.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently I have been teaching a high profile political figure English in Colombia. It's been a fascinating insight into the world of politics, and a really rewarding experience. My student is a champion of the people, of womens rights, and a true fighter against injustice, so being their teacher has been a real pleasure.

Teach, Learn, Share

Being a teacher in Colombia, I really believe in the benefits of language exchange. I am always keen to help people learn English, or if I can pick up some of their language. I am currently learning Spanish, so any help with my pronunciation and conjugation would be brilliant.
