ABOUT ME
I studied French, Portuguese, Spanish, and Turkish in the UK, Argentina, Brazil, and Turkey. I want to travel and host people from all over, especially people who would be willing to share their home towns with me, and have long chats :)
I'm currently writing a novel in Sao Paulo.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on couch surfing because I got fed up of Trip Advisor. Why trawl through pages of reviews from people who are just as clueless as you about a place, when you can ask the locals for recommendations. There is nothing better than experiencing a place through the eyes of someone who know it inside-out. Please take me to your favourite bakery, your local charity shop, to the place where you volunteer on Saturdays, your best friend's bar or your mum's studio. Those are my favourite bits of a new town! Couchsurfing has helped me find like-minded people all over the world, to hang out with, to enjoy with, and to explore with. Can't wait to meet you!!
Interests
I enjoy chatting, going out, partying, dancing and going to the cinema and theatre. I'm a huge Argentine tango fan - I've been doing that for about 5 years, and I can't get enough. But I also dance swing, lindy hop, salsa, forro, bachata, samba and kizomba.
I also love learning and teaching languages - next on my list is German.
