CURRENT MISSION

Be able to speak Spanish without the lisp

ABOUT ME

Student in Pais Vasco, Currently learning about International Relations. Intent on Law School which means I have to live it up now because in a couple years I'll be chained to a desk working for a soulless firm. Otherwise I love to travel though I haven't had a chance to do much yet. I'm pretty laid back and had a good experience meeting new people through hostels so I thought this might be an even cheaper way of meeting new and interesting people.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live? I suppose some quote by Mark Twain or the Trump would go here but I don't really have any seeing as my personal philosophy changes every day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently living with a host family so I can't really host. Apologies. Though I am up for a chat and taking people out to see Bilbao if they happen to be in the area.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just came back from my first couchsurfing experience and it was wonderful. Highly recommend the whole thing.

Interests

I'm currently studying International Relations with a concentration in developmental Economics. And I wonder why people's eyes glaze over when they hear this. I love to read, trashy tee fiction (Twilight as much as I hate to say it) as well as books that have to do with my major (United States of Europe, Banker to the Poor etc) Also a member of the debate team back home.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing....

1. Arguing with my younger brother's advice only to realize later that he was right
2. The Vatican in Rome
3. working on the rest as of now.

Teach, Learn, Share

Things to share...I speak three languages fluently and am learning a fourth. I have a black belt in Tae Kwon Doe. I am a concert violinist and have played for more than half my life. I have hilarious stories of growing up the child of two immigrants new to the US. I can share my knowledge about Economic Institutions, famous concerto's, what it's like being an Afghan born in the States while studying in Spain, places I've been or want to go, opinions, thoughts, feelings. I can also speed read out loud, I'm told it's highly entertaining.
