I'm a Florida girl living in Madrid and working as an English Teaching Assistant. On the weekends, I enjoy traveling around Spain and Europe, making friends, and experiencing new cultures. My favorite hobby is consuming art, whether that be visiting a museum, binge watching a TV series or reading screenplays. Dancing and writing are other loves of mine. When I'm not teaching, you can catch me at a salsa congress or scribbling away as a freelance journalist.

¡Hola!
Me llamo Stephanie y soy de Florida. Estoy trabajando como profe de Inglés en Madrid, España. Cada todo findes, estoy viajando por España y Europa para conocer nuevos amigos y nuevas culturas. Me encanta arte, baile y periodismo. Cuando no estoy enseñando o viajando, voy a congresos y trabajo como escritora independiente.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What is the best way to get to know a new country or city? Meet the locals! (: Most likely you can teach me something about your hometown or give me off-the-beaten-track recommendations.
