About Me

American of Mexican, Spanish, and Native descent. After graduating high school in June 2016 I decided to go out and travel so I moved 5690 miles away from my home to immerse myself in the French culture and language. Love to learn, hate to study. My passions are cultures and languages, I seem to pick them up easily. I like to read, get lost, and get out of my comfort zone. I like camping, but hate heights. Tell me a good story and I'll be your friend.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm living as a student in France (not exactly a lavish lifestyle) and I'm looking to travel around France/Europe and learn about its culture. What better way to do it than connecting with the locals? Finding their favorite coffee shop, their favorite spot to chill and think about life, that's what I'm looking for with a host. Someone to share ideas with and learn from.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to listen to all kinds of music, whether it be in English, Spanish, French, German, Korean, Chinese, or Korean. Still searching for other artists in other languages.
I don't watch a lot of TV/movies, I'm more of a book person. Historical fiction is the way to go. I just finished The Kite Runner and am currently looking for a new novel.
