About Me

Hi!
Currently based in Madrid as an Auxiliar de Conversación--or an assistant English teacher in a primary school.

I'm very outgoing. I love meeting new people and trying new things (as long as it doesn't include heights). New cultures and customs fascinate me and I'm always yearning to learn more. I don't like traveling solo so I usually take a friend or my boyfriend along with me for the ride.

I'm definitely a city girl so the majority of my travels have been to pretty well-established cities or places nearby well-established cities. A personal goal of mine is to get out of my box and go somewhere off-the-beaten-path someday soon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm always looking for more organic travel experiences. I love hearing about cities from locals and would much rather stay with someone local than in a hostel or hotel.

I've done pretty much every travel accommodation option there is: Couch surfing, hostels, hotels, staying with family, sleeping in airports (Madrid's has comfortable couches fyi). Couch surfing is the one I've probably done the least so far, but was one of my all-time favorite experiences.

Interests

Traveling (of course), reading, pinning food on Pinterest that I'll never make, laughing at cat videos, dancing and writing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
