Overview
About Me
I am a young and curious traveler! When I am not traveling I teach Spanish bilinguals (Mexican/Puerto Rican students) in a Milwaukee public school. I am fluent in Spanish and willing to teach Spanish to any potential hosters!
I just joined Couchsurfing, so I don't have many reviews but of course if you hosted me and ever found yourself in Milwaukee, you'd be welcome to stay with me :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am planning a trip to Europe this summer! I am landing in Paris, then traveling to Amsterdam as well as around Ireland and Croatia. I'm looking forward to meeting and sharing with people from different cultures.
Interests
Eating, reading, conversing, teaching, photographing, instagramming (elanmichelle), studying, learning, swimming, skiing (water and snow), playing volleyball, going out, dancing, listening to Hip-Hop music, sleeping
Music, Movies, and Books
I love reading historical fiction, memoirs, and anything by Junot Diaz. I love the fantasy, magic, and passion of (most) Latin American literature. Jorge Borges is a favorite.
Not a huge TV/ movie person but currently watching Mad Men and The Boondocks on Netflix.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Jumped hundreds of feet from a waterfall while living in Costa Rica. It was awesome (but hurt a lot!).
Teach, Learn, Share
Willing to teach Spanish for bed/couch!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Conversation about politics, education, religion/faith/interfaith, Spanish, Latin American travel, food, literature, culture. A smile!
