CURRENT MISSION

Studying abroad in Andalucía, Spain, in Almería

ABOUT ME

Currently, I am spending 6 months in Spain for a semester abroad. My main objectives here are to learn Spanish and experience the culture of Iberia through as much travel as I can squeeze in. I like to travel both alone and with others, but hate traveling in groups. I have traveled a decent amount through Europe on other occasions, and I am down for whatever. I especially like to seek out the music and cuisine indicative to a country, region, town, or neighborhood. Also, I love local festivals. I grew up in Mid-City New Orleans, and N.O. and Louisiana have my heart.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If I am in town, come on over. I am new to the site, but I've been participating in CS activities since January. Let's bridge the gap like Ronnie Lamarque.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted several friends in Almeria, and while studying in Pamplona used CS to meet up with a group of guys to go out one night.
