Hello! :) I've been on couchsurfing for a while now and have used it to host, be hosted and meet people in different trips. I've hosted on my own and also with my partner, Miguel, who's no longer active here. You can see his profile here though: https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/migueltome?action=show&controller=user_profiles

I'm originally from the U.S, but I've been living in Spain for nearly 9 years now. Miguel is from Salamanca. Both of us speak English and Spanish and we're trying to improve our French. :)

**Update 08/2024: We just moved back to Madrid a month ago, so we're quite busy now. We might be able to host, but I'm not sure. I'll try to get back to you as soon as I can.

Please read the "my house" section. In general, we're pretty flexible, but our schedule during the week is busy with work. Also, our address is not exactly right on the CS map. You can see more or less where we live on the "my house" section.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I'd like to meet locals and other travelers while I'm travelling and in my city. Couchsurfing has allowed me to meet incredible people from all over the globe and share our cultures, gastronomy, languages and cities.

教，学，和分享

I can teach you English or Spanish and share my U.S. culture and adopted Spanish culture with you. I could also teach you how to cook some vegetarian dishes and desserts! I enjoy experimenting in the kitchen. People say my hummus is good and my boyfriend and I like to make tortilla de patatas :)
