I find it tricky to talk about myself but this is the run-through: I'm a 27-year-old from Spain that has lived abroad for the last 9 years. Of these, I spent 4 in the UK, one in Vietnam, and 4 years in the Netherlands. I've spent most of my life studying and travelling. I went backpacking independently when I was 19 and then went back two years later to travel to South East Asia. I am currently backpacking through Central America.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love meeting local people and getting the most out of each country I visit. Seeing the place through local eyes and experiencing an authentic experience is what I’m after!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: a little bit of a lot! definitely depends on the mood, but I mostly listen to rap, hip-hop, Latin music, rock, indie, electronic music, or whatever is stuck in my head

Books: SO MANYYYY. I love non-fiction philosophical books (e.g., Camus!!), but also love a good novel - Katherine Neville, Julia Navarro
Fave books include: To Kill a Mockingbird, Sapiens, Jane Eyre

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spoken to the United Nations in Geneva on the topic of human rights violations in the Ecuadorian education system.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd rather do the learning! I feel like the more I learn, the less I know, and the more questions arise. I'm a very curious person and a so-called 'listener'. I think I'm mindful of listening to people and asking questions because I genuinely care. I avoid small talk, would much rather get to the nittty-grittttty.
I could teach English, Spanish, yoga
