About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am currently a Peace Corps Volunteer in Albania. I am from Spain, grew up in Montana, and have spent the last few years studying working and travelling abroad. I am fairly easy going, love learning about new places, and I love doing outdoorsy stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have used hostels most of my life travelling, but after talking with some other Volunteers I thought it might be a cool idea to start couch surfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None as of yet except for the internal Peace Corps couch surfing here in Albania

Interests

Hiking, reading, playing video games, doing projects for my town, and having an occasional night cap

  • cooking
  • video games
  • reading
  • traveling
  • hiking

  • volunteering

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a fairly eclectic taste in art, music, literature etc. But I would say my favorite book is The Master and Margarita or the Stranger. Favorite type of music is split between classic and rock, and my favorite film is Pulp Fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed Mt. Tai in China, Mt Fuji in Japan and have lived on 4 different continents.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach cooking and how to speak albanian i guess. As for learning i am down to learn something new and for sharing, i feel that is a natural organic process that is better left to the situation than to have it mechanically forced.

Countries I’ve Visited

Spain

Countries I’ve Lived In

China, Finland, Germany, United Kingdom, United States
