My name is Maitane and I am from Basque Country. I am 18 years old. I love traveling and I am taking a gap year before starting university. After Christmas I am going to start my trip across the Norh of Europe and in summer I am going to United States. I want to visit Italy before Christmas, as I´ve never been there before and I would like to visit some friends. I am very open minded, so for me It is easy to adapt to any cultural changes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During my trips I have meet a lot of people from different countries. In my last trip, I made really good friends from Italy, and I would like to visit them. Apart from that, I love meeting new people and socializing with everybody. It is always good to make new friends.
