Hola! I am from California am currently living in Madrid as an English teacher. I came to Madrid to travel around Spain, work on my Spanish, and meet awesome new people. I'm a very open minded and outgoing person, I love to try new foods and drinks, see live music and performances, read, and explore.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people! It's hard to meet locals when staying in hostels, usually I just meet fellow expats or travelers. I really want to meet people from the areas I'm staying and experience the city the right way!
