Language lover from a Mexican American family. I'm an outgoing 24 year old with a sense of adventure. I've lived in Guadalajara, New York, San Diego, and Barcelona and am never quite sure which to call home. The more friends the merrier! Gluten free but I'll take care of it ;).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like traveling without an itinerary and with no fixed idea of what I will encounter. I also think that the best way to get to know a city is to meet its people, read its books, and eat its food (yay!).

Interests

Poetry, translation, Catalan, literature, guitar, dance... and I'd love to see more flamenco!
