Hello! I’m Maria. l’m a student from the US. I am easy going, friendly and respectful. I live to travel and love to meet new people :)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I’m backpacking around Europe right now. I want to meet people locally in an authentic way and get to know other cultures. I like being reminded how genuinely good humans are all around the world. It restores my faith in humanity! Also, sticking to a small budget is how I’m able to travel when I can. Couchsurfing helps me make my dreams come true!

Centres d'intérêt

Photography, hiking, swimming, surfing, beaching, baseball, biking, exploring new cities, anything outdoors. Conversation and sharing food, grabbing a coffee or tea or beer, having deep conversations and light ones. My favorite way to get to know a city is by walking it all day!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I like to practice languages, cook and eat new foods (and drinks), and listen to every kind of music from other cultures. I am a lover of being active and going for it all day and also chilling really hard :~) I’ve studied social sciences a lot and like to observe and learn about human behavior. I can help you work out anything that’s weighing heavy on your mind! I’m interested in everything related to health, fitness & physical wellbeing. I’ve worked on farms and know a bit about growing and preserving food. As a student for life, I’m always happy to share and learn something new. I’m also a barista for work and enjoy making people delicious coffee drinks.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Laughter, spontaneity, conversation, cooking. As a guest I am neat, clean and tidy, and consider myself low-maintenance. I always clean up after myself & do as much as possible to not burden hosts. I can share what I’ve learned about farming and how to travel successfully on a small budget. I can stay out of your way, or hang out and get to know each other if you have the time & energy.
