About Me

Open minded, pensive and a little shy at first but I get over it, creative/designer, conversationalist, half Spanish and half Australian.

Grew up in Switzerland then moved to London for University, did an Erasmus exchange in Istanbul, then worked in London for two years as a Graphic Designer

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I came to this site because I want to continue the exchange experience that I have loved so much of meeting new people, learning new things and enjoying ourselves.

Interests

Recently I've become interested in the field of philosophy..
One of the things I love to do is to find a lovely park, a hidden garden or just a sunny spot (with just enough shade for me to sit under), get comfy, and then observe, sketch or write.
