About Me

I really love travelling and the possibility of getting to know new places, ways of living, cultures, music, dance styles, the history underlying a village or a city, and the possibility of learning the customs that characterize those places. In fact, in September I'm travelling to Australia and at the moment I'm spending some time in New Zeland!!! I really like socializing and talking (a lot jeje) about any kind of topic. Listening to different points of view is, in my opinion, very important since anybody has the
absolute truth, right? :)
Teaching is my real vocation. I knew I wanted to teach since I was a child and as time went by my liking for English increased making possible for me to fit two big loves in my life: English and teaching.
I've had the chance to teach different kinds of subjects, not only English. I've worked as a private teacher, as a tutor, at English academies, at schools and I even had the opportunity to work at a state institution teaching to air traffic controllers who were studying to get their certification of their English level.
Every day it goes by I am more convinced teaching is my true vocation.
I also love learning new things. I am very persistent and curious so I really like trying new things, different kinds of jobs, craftwork, moving around, trying new sports, etc.

Me encanta viajar y la posibilidad de conocer nuevos lugares, formas de vivir, culturas, música, tipos de baile, la historia que subyace en cada pueblo o ciudad y por supuesto aprender las costumbres que caracterizan a las personas de ese lugar, de hecho en septiembre viajo a Australia y en este momento me encuentro vacacionando en Nueva Zelanda! Me gusta mucho socializar y charlar sobre todo tipo de temas, escuchar distintas opiniones y ver diferentes puntos de vista ya que nadie tiene la verdad absoluta de las cosas no? :)
Enseñar es mi vocación, desde chica supe que quería enseñar y con el paso de los años mi gusto por el inglés fue en aumento pudiendo así conciliar dos grandes amores d mi vida, el inglés y la enseñanza. He tenido oportunidad de enseñar todo tipo de materias, no solo inglés, de forma privada, en academias, en colegios y hasta tuve la oportunidad de enseñar en una institución del estado para preparar a controladores aéreos para que rindan y certifiquen su nivel de inglés. Cada día que pasa estoy más convencida de que es mi verdadera vocación. También me encanta aprender cosas nuevas, soy muy perseverante y curiosa por lo que me gusta probar nuevos trabajos, oficios, aprender por ejemplo manualidades, intentar nuevos deportes, etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well, I think this is one of the best ways to meet new people from different places from the inside let say, and at the same time to show them the city where I live, our customs and our beautiful views by receiving them in my house. I personally think that couchsurfing is a way to trust people and see that solidarity and friendliness still can be found even across cultures.
