ABOUT ME

I like to travel to meet people and talk about the way they live and think. I enjoy sitting at cafes or parks when I am in a new place and absorbing the lifestyle in a relaxed way.

I came to Spain to teach English for a year but fell in love with Spain, the language, and Europe in general so I am staying another year or maybe forever :)

Currently between apartments but wish I could host people as well!

PHILOSOPHY

“One of those flash epiphanies of travel, the realization that worlds you'd love vibrantly exist outside your ignorance of them. The vitality of many lives you know nothing about. The breeze lifting a blue curtain in a doorway billows just the same whether you are lucky enough to observe it or not. Travel gives such jolts. I could live in this town, so how is it that I've never been here before today?”-A Year in the World, Journeys of a Passionate Traveler, by Frances Mayes

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Love meeting new people and hearing about their lives in a different place and sharing stories. I believe the beauty of travel is to meet new people and make the world feel a little smaller.

Interests

Exploring new cities and being outdoors in parks or in the mountains. I love hiking and being in nature.
