I just graduated high school and am taking a gap year in Ecuador before University(intending on majoring in either International Relations, Economics, or Journalism). I'm living with a host family in San Antonio de Ibarra and teaching English at a secondary school.

Things I like: Mac and cheese, Snoopy, drawing, playing guitar

This is my first time couch surfing so apologies if I do anything wrong

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and feel like living with someone from wherever I go can give me a more authentic look into the culture than staying somewhere else.

Interests

• music
• guitar
• international relations
• avocados
• doodling

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite movie: Inside out probably but I can watch anything that isn't a horror movie I love sappy romcoms
Favorite book: "If Cats Disappeared from the World" by Genki Kawamura is my favorite at the moment because I read it recently but this changes all the time
Favorite music: I can listen to most anything lol https://open.spotify.com/user/22rwm5qusvjayk3b4cktyw77a?si=tsOqsSamSmmOmYe4z8gkzw
