21. Last year I decided to come to the States to participate in an exchange program. My major is business and I am a senior. I'm staying at SIUE campus at the very south of Illinois. I come from Europe, from a region of Spain called Catalonia. I am the only student that came from Spain so I am looking to meet as many people as I can.

I am a very active person. I love sports, food and cultural exchange.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Wanna travel as much as possible during my stay on the US. Specially I wanna visit Chicago.

Apart from that, the main purpose of my exchange program is to improve my english speaking skills...so this could be a great tool for that.

Other than that, I am more than opened to meet local people that make me more familiar with the American culture and its tradition.

HAVEN'T HAD ANY EXPERIENCE ON COUCHSURFING YET. I'VE BEEN TOLD ABOUT THIS WEBPAGE WHEN ASKING ON WHERE TO STAY ON CHICAGO (CAUSE HOTELS WERE VERY EXPENSIVE).

Teach, Learn, Share

Lots of people on the States want to learn some spanish. I guess I could be your spanish teacher then.
