I'm an English/Greek/Spanish gal from near Manchester UK, currently on a year abroad as part of my uni studies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Coming from a very multi-national/cultural family I have always had a passion for languages and cultures. So when I was given the opportunity to learn German at college I jumped at it! My childhood was filled with so many different influences, cultures, and accents which I I think has had a strong impact on my life and career choices. I am looking to connect with people and immerse myself in new cultures, improve my language skills, share experiences and to learn lots from people to help me grow as a person.

I am currently on an adventure in Spain in the hope of meeting lots of interesting people from all around the world and picking up as much Spanish as possible! As a lot of my family grew up in the UK the language unfortunately fizzled out somewhere down the line so I'd love to bring it back again and feel connected to my heritage. I'd also love to maintain my German by practising with speakers of the language and hopefully perfect it :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteer at the Home and Life orphanage in Thailand - most rewarding and inspiring thing I've ever experienced!! I gained so much understanding/insight into a totally different culture and way of life. I would go back in a heartbeat.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have lots of experience with/looking after children so I would happily help out with childcare (or pet care!).
And obviously I would love to share my experiences and stories!
