About Me

Hola! Me encanta conversar, comer, viajar, leer, y estar en la naturaleza. He pasado los ultimas 3 anos viviendo en el estado precioso de Oregon en EEUU, pero naci y creci en Chicago. Soy apasionada acerca de trabajar por equidad, y por justicia economica/racial/de genero. Estoy al punto de empezar estudios para ser abogada de derechos civiles y humanos.

Me considero una persona adaptable, honesta, curiosa, y respetuosa. Tengo un deseo fuerte de aprender y ampliar mi perspectiva.

Hi! I love to have conversations, eat, travel, read, and be in nature. I was born and raised near Chicago and have lived in the beautiful state of Oregon on the west coast of the US for the last three years. I'm passionate about working for equity and economic/racial/gender justice. I'm about to begin studying to be a civil and human rights lawyer.

I consider myself curious, easygoing, honest, and respectful. I have an insatiable desire to learn and broaden my perspective.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

El aspecto de viajar que mas valgo es conectar con personas diferentes que mi, y mejor entender las culturas, estilos de vida, y perspectivas de otros. Quiero intercambiar experiencias, cultura, conocimiento, e ideas.
He utilizado workaway en mis viajes previos, y siempre me encantaba viajar en esta manera, conociendo a personas y ayudandoles con sus proyectos. Pero en este viaje, no tengo el tiempo para quedarme semanas en un lugar. Couchsurfing me parece una alternativa perfecta!

The part I love most about travelling is connecting with people that are different that me, and coming to better understand the cultures, life styles, and perspectives of others. I want to exchange experiences, culture, knowledge, and ideas.
I've used workaway in previous trips, and I always loved travelling that way, getting to know people and helping with projects. But on this trip I will not have the time to stay for weeks in a single place , so CouchSurfing seems like a better option!
