Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've couchsurfed various times, and now my flatmate and I are looking to host travellers in our Bermeo flat. We love meeting new people, and want to bring the excitement of the travelling spirit into our home.

I also would really like to learn to surf (the sea, wave kind)!!!! Would anyone like to teach me? In exchange I could teach you English?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed on various trips to Spain as well as hosted at my old flat in Glasgow. I love the trusting experience of couchsurfing, it's really refreshing. CS is a really eye-opening experience. When couchsurfing in Spain and was overwhelmed with the hospitality and kind people I met.

Interests

I studied Spanish and Portuguese at university so love taking the opportunity to speak other languages. Likewise, if people want to practice their English then I enjoy helping them with my mother tongue too.

I love the outdoors and like to explore the countryside, walking or cycling as much as I can. I like exploring cities but feel most myself when been immersed in the greener parts of the world. Swimming in rivers and the sea are two of my favourite things to do.

I love talking about politics, reading novels and graphic novels, and having the time to enjoy a coffee with myself and the paper. I also enjoy the simple pleasure of hanging out with my friends and also partying!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love a lot of music..from punk rock to folk. I'm also a dub and reggae fan and usually enjoy hip hop too. At the moment Í find myself listening to Idlewild a lot as they remind me of Scotland.

I love reading books as well...a mix of the classics and modern adventure stories. I especially love Latin American fiction. Kiss of the Spiderwoman was one of the best books I ever read.
