ABOUT ME

Hola! I'm a 20-something Masters student from a farm in the Midwestern USA. I'm currently living in the center of Madrid, working as an English teacher in Valdemoro and a student in Alcalá de Henares. I'm trying to see as much of Spain as possible in my puentes. About me? I'm happy. I'm tall. I once caught a piranha and ate it for dinner.

PHILOSOPHY

"Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught."

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I use CS to meet new people when I'm new to a place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I've just used it for intercambios de idioma and meetups.

兴趣

I tell people that my two favorite things are mother nature and beer, so when I get to combine the two, I'm as happy as can be. I love being outdoors, whether I'm biking, skiing, reading a book, running, hiking, or drinking my beloved beer and/or coffee. I love to travel and to meet new people. My best friends are scattered all over the world, as are my favorite memories. My favorite city in the world is Berlin, and I'm always looking for a way to move back, although Madrid is growing on me dangerously fast, as well.
