Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love travelling and making new friends from all over the world! Couchsurfing has been the app that helped me the most when I first moved abroad more than 10 years ago. I've decided to start hosting again: I've been helped a lot and I want to help back. I prefer to host women cause I know how it feels when you travel and feel uncomfortable in someone else's home. Both last minute and ahead plans work with me, but I'm busy with work (and traveling) and might not be able to help everyone. Also, the new app is very confusing and I'm still trying to navigate and understand how to contact people near my whereabouts.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love tv shows and movies, always ready for new suggestions; I listen to music a looot, mostly pop, reggaeton, rap and hip hop, and I've been to many concerts, especially in the past couple of years. I'm also an avid reader and have hundreds of books (some of them still unread 🤭), always looking for new titles to add to my collection.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I love spending time with my hosts and talk about anything: I particularly love to share life experiences, travel stories and Couchsurfing anecdotes! I'd love to cook with/for you, help with cleaning or do anything that needs to be done; I'm also very independent and ready to make my own plans and explore the surroundings by myself if you're busy.
