Hello! I'm Erin. I'm 26 years old and love to travel. I graduated with a Bachelor's in New York in Spanish Language and Literature. I am currently in a Masters program in Madrid for this year. I hope to either teach or work in study abroad offices in order to help other students get the same travel opportunities I have had.

I was born in southern California and moved to New York when I was 9. I have family in England, New Zealand and Australia. I always wanted to travel and my education gave me the opportunity to do that by the time I was 25. I have travelled throughout Spain and been to about 10 countries so far.

I'm an easygoing person that wants to explore the world and enjoy life and travel as much as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to try out something new. I'd like to meet new people and it seems like a good way to travel around on a low budget and get some more authentic experiences. I have had some friends that have done Couchsurfing and said it was a great experience, so I figured why not?

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all types of music (not really country, though). I grew up listening to classic rock (Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, etc.) with my Dad. I can go from weird indie to hiphop to classic. It's all good. (I can't dance though..)

I enjoy reading but I don't read as much as I'd like. I usually read on my travels when I have down time.

I love checking out new movies, classics, etc, from all genres/countries as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved to Spain for a Masters program and took charge of making my dreams of exploring the world come true.

Next step: Move to California and travel throughout the Americas (North, Central and South) and Asia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to practice Spanish and help others practice English while exchanging cultural perspectives.
