My name is Jay Tipton. I have been living in Huelva, Spain since January 2019, and I teach English is a public school. I am from Los Angeles, CA. Before moving to Spain, I produced documentaries, commercials and feature films.

I am a huge futbol fan (playing and watching). I enjoy reading, writing, traveling, meeting new people, exploring new cultures. I am a Climate Activist.

I speak pretty solid Spanish and am trying to learn Italian.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking to explore Europe, experience new things and meet great people!

Favorite music: every and all type of music (minus country...) but I suppose my favorite genre is Indie music.

Favorite movies (in no particular order): 1) Shawshank Redemption 2) Ferris Bueller's Day Off 3) The Dark Knight 4) Caddyshack 5) Monty Python & The Holy Grail - but I will watch anything

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been dealt a Royal Flush in Texas Hold 'em Poker which has a probability of 0.000154% or 649,740 : 1 odds. I guess that is just luck though...!

Teach, Learn, Share

I currently teach English for a living so I've got that going for me. I am very happy to help with the language. I am also open to learning anything new!
