Hey I'm Jo! I'm originally from England but right now I'm living in Mataro near Barcelona teaching English to children. The job is quite time consuming so I haven't had much time to explore all the places I want to see yet or even learn any Spanish or Catalan! So any kind of cultural or language exchange would be the perfect situation for me. I am more than happy to help you improve your English with some interesting conversation! I'm a very easy going, happy person and most importantly I will respect your home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to Spain, embracing another culture and way of life. As well as teaching children, that has been an amazing experience for me.
