ABOUT ME

Hello Couchsurfers! I am Leah, a small town girl from Mississippi. I was raised on a ranch and have ridden horses my whole life. I really love the outdoors, sports and adventure :) I am really extroverted and I love to be around people, looking for every opportunity to travel, throw a party, or just hangout at home with friends. I am rather silly, and try to add humor to most situations.

PHILOSOPHY

"Take your time going and hurry back."
"Life's all about making memories"
"Que me quiten lo bailado."
"Never regret anything, because at one point it was exactly what you wanted"
"lo que no aprovehen los humanos se comen los gusanos" "Safety first, then teamwork" - Travis Anderson

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am trying my best to give as much as I receive. I love hosting and surfing. I have traveled around Europe and made some unforgettable memories.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had some wonderful experiences with Couchsurfers, hosting, surfing, weekend trips throughout Spain, holidays in Italy and making some really close friendships. I feel like a better, more open minded person after every conversation and with every experience I learn more about the world and about myself.

Intereses

I really love sports, I played Lacrosse in college. Now I love to run, cycle, play ultimate Frisbee. I am competitive and really get into what ever game i am playing. I have found it difficult to participate in sports nowadays but my friends and I can really get into a good game of Killer Uno.

I love experiencing new cultures and I really, really love learning Spanish. It really makes me happy to finally be able to speak and understand another language. I consider myself fortunate to have lived in Spain. I have a first hand experience of the language and culture here.

Música, películas y libros

I love artists such as Seasick Steve, Amos Lee, 90's country, and country bluse but, I am really bad at knowing the names of anything famous; movies, songs, artists, series on TV...
