About Me

Hello!

I am an American student currently studying in A Coruña, Spain. I studied Spanish Language and Literature and Communication Disorders. I will begin my masters this coming year. I would love to see more of Europe and learn more about and experience the amazing cultures that exist on this continent. I am fluent in both English and Spanish but would love to learn more languages throughout my travels! I enjoy insightful conversation and enjoy hearing new perspectives about the world. On a different note, I do not mind helping out around the house in exchange for opening up your home to me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe traveling is a very rewarding experience because it opens your eyes to not only diverse perspectives but also to your own personality and faults.
