Hi Friends! I'm an English Teacher that recently moved back to Valencia Spain. I worked as a Social Worker for a while in the U.S. and I love anything comedy related! I did comedy improvisation for about 10 months in Chicgaos's famous "Second City."

I lived in Spain almost 1.5 years and Italy for a summer and I fell in love w/travelling and different cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people as well as taking on challenges which could also turn into opportunities. I thrive on meeting those from different backgrounds and interests because the world is much smaller than you think.

Me encanta a conocer gente nueva así como asumiendo nuevos desafíos, que podrían ser oportunidades. El mundo es más pequeño de lo que parece.

Interests

I'll try (almost) anything once!

• books
• yoga

• standup comedy
• anything outdoors

Music, Movies, and Books

I love anything "Seinfeld" related. Books: Dear Sugar, WILD, Running w/Scissors, A Million Little Pieces, Freakonomics, Blink, various books w/social psychology themes

I like almost all music, but especially 80's pop, rock, oldies, Indie...Imagine Dragons, Christina Perri, Lindsey Stirling, Alaska...y mas

Moved to Spain without knowing anyone, having travelled on my own or having ever been there before!

Teach, Learn, Share

Took on a new job, new culture and basically new life with the mission to learn about myself and those around me and this has been a huge learning experience; but there is so much more to understand about the world

What I Can Share with Hosts

Definitely a sense of humor and passion for trying new activities.
