¡Hola, couchsurfers de todo el mundo!

Soy una viajera española muy entusiasta y amante de la naturaleza. Otra de mis pasiones es aprender idiomas, siendo el checo mi última “adquisición”, después de vivir durante un año y medio en Praga, donde estuve enseñando español y disfrutando todo lo que podía de escapadas a las montañas.

Por todo ello, decidí venir a Sudamérica junto con mi pareja, Tomás, de la República Checa. Me encantaría aprender todo lo posible de la cultura latinoamericana, para poder transmitirlo en el futuro a mis alumnos y para disfrutar de la maravillosa naturaleza que ofrece este continente.

En nuestra aventura, queremos conocer a gente local para compartir experiencias y pasar tiempo en buena compañía. También planeamos hacer algún voluntariado por el camino y poder aportar así nuestro granito de arena a la sociedad, a la vez que aprendemos cosas nuevas.

¡Nos vemos en el camino!

Hi, Couchsurfers from everywhere!

I am a nature lover and an enthusiastic traveller coming from Spain. Languages are also another of my passions, being Czech my last “acquisition”, after living for one and a half year in Prague, where I was teaching Spanish and enjoying sports in the mountains.

That’s why I decided to come to South America together with my Czech boyfriend, Tomás: learning as much as possible from the Latin-American culture, so I can share it with my students in the future, and enjoying the amazing nature this continent offers.

On our adventure, we would love to meet locals on our way, so we can share experiences and spend a good time together. We also plan to do some volunteering jobs on the way in order to do our bit for the planet and to learn new things.

See you on the way!
Bea

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people from anywhere and to share good moments together

Interests

I love travelling, learning languages with local people and reading, specially fantastic literature. I used to compete in triathlon and now I enjoy a lot doing outdoor sports in general, above all in the mountains. I really like also to take part as volunteer in international sport competitions and solidarity events.

Music, Movies, and Books

The Killers, Pink, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Fray, Amaral

My favorite books are The Name of the Wind (P. Rothfuss) and The Unbearable Lightness of Being (Milan Kundera), but I also really like Amélie Nothomb, Albert Camus, Isabel Allende among others.

Some books that left a mark on me: Las venas abiertas de América Latina, de Eduardo Galeano; Blindness, de José Saramago; 1984, de George Orwell.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A bycicle trip for a month from my Erasmus city in Germany to my home city in Spain with my boyfriend, which was also a project with a social purpose: to fight leukemia. We colaborated with a German association and we collected more than 2.000€ through donations for this purpose.

Teach, Learn, Share

Experiences and knowledge about my own culture and a little bit about the others that I had the pleasure to interact with. And, of course, languages! I love teach them as much as learn new ones.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A enthusiastic chat about experiences, cultures, sport, politics...
My helpful hands and few cooking skills (that I hope to develop on this trip)
