Hey, I'm Holly. I like to read and meet new people, and can be a language nerd, like a lot of couchsurfers. Sometimes I am a bit shy, but I will warm up to you! for the most part I am pretty calm and have found that my personality doesn't clash with others' often

Hola, soy Holly. me gusta leer y conocer a nueva gente. a veces estoy timida, pero me animo dentro de poco! yo soy una persona media tranquila, y mi personalidad caye bien con la mayoria de la gente que he conocido

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To reach out to people and allow others to reach out to me. I think it can be hard to meet new people whom you actually want to meet, and couchsurfing is a great way of doing that.

Para alcanzar a nueva gente y dejar que ella me alcanza tambien. puede ser dificil conocer a nueva gente que de verdad quieres conocer, y couchsurfing lo hace mucho mas facil!

Music, Movies, and Books

books/libros: sherlock holmes, cinnamon and gun powder, da vinci code, gatsby, holes, sophie scholl and the white rose, heartbreaking work of staggering genius. I tend to like fiction that has an adventure in it with a bit of a romance. me gustan las novelas que tienen aventura y un poquito de romancia ;)

movies: holes, sherlock holmes

music: \I really like this indie pop trend, I like jazz or soundtracks without lyrics for studying, I try to be somewhat familiar with popular music since I think it's a great bonding point

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Somehow I have managed to become fluent (enough) in Spanish, and I am super proud of myself for that. sometimes people even think I am native (shhh, I totally am....)

He aprendido el espanyol, y por eso estoy muy orgullosa de mi misma. Pero siempre quiero aprenderlo aun mejor!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I have taught spanish, and I like working with people on their language. I try to speak to people in the language they prefer to be spoken to in, if I can. Yo he trabajado con ensenyar el espanyol, y me gusta apoyar a personas cuando aprenden una idioma. Intento a hablar con una persona en la idioma que prefiere. J'ai enseigne l'espaignole pendant plusieurs etes. J'essai a parler a quelqu'un dans la langue qu'il prefere.

Learn: I study mechanical engineering. I like learning languages, but I don't have the best memory. I like reading interesting articles. obvio, me gusta aprender idiomas, pero no tengo buena memoria. me gusta leer articulos

share: sharing is caring! the value of something usually goes up when you share it.
