Overview
About Me
I am originally from England but left about 6 years ago on a gap year which hasn't ended yet!
In 2010 I met my French boyfriend, Romain in Australia and we have been discovering the world together ever since. After 2 years in Australia we spent 6 months in Asia, backpacking around places.
Between 2012 and 2015 we lived in New Zealand where I worked as an English language teacher. I throughly enjoy my work and really love helping people to improve their English.
In September 2015 we left New Zealand to explore latin America. We're making our way from Mexico to Patagonia hoping to improve our Spanish and discover Latin life!!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
We both enjoy meeting and talking to new people and feel the best way to explore a country is to meet the people.
As mentioned above we are trying to improve our Spanish and we can only do this through the help of native speakers in their homes.
