I owned a chocolate company for 10 years. I sold it in 2018 and have been working remotely since then. I have been based in Spain the past year. I love to cook and am passionate about surfing, the environment and cultural exchange.
I am clean and organized. I promise I will treat your home like its my own. I am very grateful to anyone who opens their home to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This seems like a great way to meet people. I've heard so many great stories about it for years. I can't believe its taken me this long to join!
