Overview
About Me
Currently trying to get a PhD in applied mathematics. I love music and as a consequence I play the drums. I enjoy running and playing squash. I watch TV shows in industrial quantities.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I figured visiting places and having locals show you around is way better than just following a guide. So whether I'm going somewhere or someone is coming to Barcelona, I'll be more than happy to meet you and have a nice chat while discovering whatever city we are in.

Music, Movies, and Books
If I start writing my favourite bands, I'll never finish!

I'm more of a TV show kind of girl. I enjoy(ed) watching Lost, 30 Rock, Fringe, How I Met Your Mother, Modern Family, Parks and Recreation, Friends, Psych, Jessica Jones, The Good Wife, Nip/Tuck, Sherlock, Game of Thrones, Dexter, The Flash, Orange is the New Black...
I don't get much reading done these days, but if Nick Hornby or Douglas Coupland have a new book, I'll be sure to read it. Otherwise, I read whatever books I find around, though fiction is my favourite kind of genre.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I deeply enjoyed spending a night in the middle of the desert when I travelled around Tunisia.
Drove 2500 km in three days to see the Grand Canyon, Death Valley and Yosemite.
