About Me

Hello! I'm BC. Currently staying and working in Georgetown, a pretty sweet deal. I got to sea the see *laughs internally* and live next to 3 bookstores and if I am too full with all the good, mouthwatering food this life can offer, I can always take a little brisk walk near the beach and judge people silently - a favourite sport of sort.

Come judge people with me :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I traveled since I was 13 and I met random, kind strangers everywhere. I was a little girl and traveling alone for 12 hours in one stretch so those strangers were all I had in the world. I was scared, alone and very timid but I am a very determined person. Also, I am not good at making good decisions so I guess have pretty good stories. 80% are normal people. I was robed once and almost raped twice and this was before I found out about CS. Can't let that happen to anyone.

Interests

I read a lot before but now I guess I write more than I read. I don't watch much television but I think I am getting more interested in anime. I am still sad that the Legend of Korra ended (though it's not technically an anime) I love history and I would be pleased to welcome a Spanish speaker at my house because in order not to let the language to escape me, I had to do some really stupid stuff and I think my mother think that I'm possessed by Spanish ghosts sometimes. It's tough when no one I know speaks Spanish and I am not going to let it go no matter what. I used to work at the embassy of Mexico and the embassy of Argentina.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like Yann Tiersen, The Piano Guys, La Oreja de Van Gogh, Of Monsters and Men, Yuna, Coldplay, Bastille, Melendi, a mix of different genres, countries and languages.

I watch the majority of animations. Amelie, The Lego Movie, anything sci-fi or dinosaurs but nothing creepy or romantic romedy.

Can't list all of my books here. My favourites are mostly written by dead French men like Hugo, Verne and Dumas.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I bought a Europass and traveled alone to 7 countries in 15 days and I did this knowingly that I have motion sickness.

Belgium, Cambodia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, India, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Scotland, Singapore, Spain, Thailand, United Kingdom
