My name is Leyla, and I've been living in Barcelona for the last 10 years (I think it's my record in the same place! I'm originally from Bilbao/Valencia)
During these years, my perception and relationship with the city has changed a lot. Now I consider that I'm in love with her. Moving from the city center has been a good decission btw!
I love to enjoy all the culture, concerts, popular and local plans/experiences that Barcelona offers. Additionally, you enjoy the sorroundings (incredible beaches and mountains not very far from here!)

I'm a Feminist, vegan & antiracist. I love to talk about psychology, education, arts, culture, music, gender perspective & feminism. Furthermore, I consider myself a very open-minded person. I enjoy learning about "social things", in fact, I work for public education as a psychopedagogist counseler; and one of my dreams is to enroll someday to study a filosophy degree.

I love to travel and to meet new people, preferably around a table with delicious food . I can cook for you and show you some delicious dishes of my two countries :)
