CURRENT MISSION

Hablar español con fluidez!!

ABOUT ME

I have recently arrived in Buenos Aires from the UK for a year and I want to see as much of this beautiful country as possible! I desperately want to speak Spanish fluently at the end of the year and while I am here, I want to make as many Argentinian friends as I can.

I come from a rural farming town in the east of England, I would eventually like to become a diplomat but I need to learn a few languages first!

PHILOSOPHY

This best sums it up...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have never couchsurfed before but my cousin had a great time so I thought I'd give it a go!
