A young lady ready to explore every corner of the world whilst doing everything I love: water sports (kitesurfing), religious studies, baking and gardening, listening to Spanish music and reading great books. I am a student of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology. My goal is to go into biomimicry - working with architects, city planners, farmers, marine biologists and governments to improve the quality of life for humans and animals alike. I'd like to "renovate" major cities to be functioning ecosystems that do not create huge amounts of waste; and contribute to the cleaning of the oceans and air.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
