I am an outgoing person. I love experiencing different cultures and getting to know people from any part of the world.

I teach Spanish (and some times English) on-line to people from around the globe.

I love doing yoga, listening to music, cooking, reading, dancing and teaching both Spanish and English.

I am very passionate about life and I always try to be a very positive person. I believe that attitude makes a difference in a person's life. It's all about having a good attitude no matter what life throws at you. Happiness is a choice and I choose to be happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting new people and learning about other cultures and beliefs, life styles, etc. I love sharing conversations and about anything and everything with people from all walks of life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't think I could ever stop talking about music! I have too many favorites (both in Spanish and English). But some of my top favorites are: Coldplay, Fink, Snow Patrol, U2, The Cure, The Killers, The Kooks, Keane, Alejandro Sanz, Leon Larregui, Zoe, Jarabe de Palo, etc., etc.

Same thing with movies! Some of my favorites are The Sawshank Redemption, Lord of the Rings movies, The Green Mile, Schindler's List, The Pianist, Inception, Nacho Libre, Pride and Prejudice, Leap Year, The Holiday, The Anne of Green Gables moives, and I could go on and on.

Books! Oh my goodness! I have a thing for the classics, but I like all kinds of readings, mostly novels. I love Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, Pride and Prejudice (of course), Persuasion, The Scarlet Pimpernel, The Book Thief, The Help, etc., etc., etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently: The Cure concert in Lisbon, Portugal. WOW!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching Spanish and English. It's truly an amazing experience to be able to share the gift of understanding, speaking and reading a new language to people from all parts of the world. One of the greatest feelings is when you see the great results after a student didn't speak a word of Spanish and then after some time and dedication you are holding a full conversation in the language! I just love it!! You can find me on www.spanishenvivo.com. :)

I also love love love doing and learning and sometimes even teaching yoga. It makes me feel empowered and free. Can't live without it.
