I am a student from the USA currently studying abroad in Madrid. I am not verified due to a very tight current budget, feel free to message me on facebook, linkedin, etc if you want to make sure I am who I say I am!

I love hiking, eating, and exploring new cultures. This is my first time long-term experience abroad and I am trying to make the most of it before I begin working in New York City this summer.

I would love to meet new people and get new experiences—in Madrid and beyond.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I am trying to see Europe on a college budget, which can seem impossible sometimes. I also would like to expand my social experience abroad and meet new people and experience new cultures from a local's point of view.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I would love to learn about local cuisine, particularly desserts! I can share my own top-secret apple pie recipe, and bring sweets from Spain.

I also love sports—I would love to teach you to ice skate, play field hockey, or go for a jog. Love yoga, weights, and pickup sports.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I am super outgoing and love making friends in new places. I love to cook and talk, and would love to teach some of my midwestern card games or favorite podcasts. I also am down for language exchange--I love learning spanish, and am interested in other romance languages as well.
