About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go with the flow of life, meet nice people along the way.

ABOUT ME

I am interested in the world, people and developing myself in all the ways that life presents. I want to experience new things and meet new people.....

I've lived most of my life living in Sheffield, UK, but have also travelled a lot and lived in Japan for 3 years. I've also spent a lot of time in India where I've learnt yoga from my teachers. Now I'm travelling through the Americas and having a fantastic experience of new cultures, people and language. I really want to improve my Spanish while I stay with you.

Yo quiero experimentar el mundo y conocer la gente de los otros piases. Al mismo tiempo quiero ampliar mis conocimientos. Ahora estoy estudiando español mucho.

He vivendo en Sheffield, Reino Unido, por muchos años. Además viví en Japon por tres años y visité diversos países. En India he estudiado yoga. Ahora estoy viajando en Latino America que es una experiencia muy fantastico. Yo quiero hablar en español mucho.

PHILOSOPHY

To go with the flow of life. No need to resist, life will take us where we need to go. Enjoying the journey.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined Couchsurfing a few years ago, but then never used it. My friend recently suggested it as a way to improve my Spanish, so here I am. I'd love to teach yoga in exchange for your patience with my Spanish. In the future, I'd like to return the favour by offering a place for couchsurfers when I return to Sheffield.

No he usado couchsurfing antes. Yo quiero conocer la gente de Latino-America y experimentar la cultura mientras quisiera practicar español. En futuro, me gustaría ofrecer un couch en Sheffield. Puedo enseñar yoga por tu ayuda en español. Además, me gustar cocinar la comida vegetariana. Yo quiero cocinar para tí.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Music, Movies, and Books

Don't watch movies and never seem to have time for books, though Shantaram was excellent.
Mostly electronic music, but I'm pretty open to anything. Spotify is wicked and checking out loads of new stuff as a result.
No tengo mucho tiempo por las peliculares.
Me gustan todas las tipos de musica, excepto la musica pop. Quiero escuchar la musica tradicional de tu area.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumped out of a plane on a fixed wire.
Paracaidismo

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach Ashtanga Yoga and English Language for a living. I am happy to share what I know with people I meet along. I'd be happy to give a yoga class in return for your hospitality.
