About Me

Just finished my degree in translation and interpreting, I decided to spend the next 3/4 years living abroad and having lots of experiences metting people and knowing new stories. For now I'm working as an aupair in Switzerland and enjoying every corner of this lovely country. I'm a very sociable person. I like smiling and meeting new people to share interesting conversations. I enjoy very much hanging out with international groups of Friends. I'm always happy to help people as far as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing as a guest for now. I'll host people in the future when I live by my own and not with a family. I had my first experience this year and I found it amazing! It's wonderful how completely straingers can connect very well.
I'm looking forward to live in a place where I can host people.

Interests

I love almost all sports I've been swimming in competitions for 10 years (just gave up some months ago) and playing basketbal for 5 years; love skiing, water skiing, baseball, voleyball, tennis, skating,... I also love travelling, enjoying the nature, going party, dancing sevillanas (kind of flamenco dance), going shopping, chatting in other languages,.. and cooking! I love when people like my meals :)

I'm very dinamic, so any kind of plan outdoors is perfect for me. I really like to enjoy the life!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like lots of kind of music, depending on the moment. I like rock, pop, r&b, comercial radio music while I'm driving, reggaeton and electronic for dancing... Have a very opened taste of music.

As far as movies and books are concerned, I like them a lot, but I'm not that kind of person who read or watch movies a lot. However, I can say that I like all Anna Gavalda's books and Catherine Neville's too. Harry Potter as well, it's so typical but I'm from HP's generation! and I really enjoy watching comedia, action, mystery and romantic films.
I also like watching online series like HIMYM, PLL, Once upon a time, Game of thrones, Happy endings, Modern family... I've seen lots of them, couldn't write all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had three decisions in my life that will be amazing for me the rest of my life: Being a swimmer for 10 years, doing an Erasmus year in France and being an aupair in Switzerland.
Also an interrail in Europe I did alone and doing CS for the first time, I will never forget it. I met so wonderful people and learnt lots of thing of different cultures.
Oh! Also a 35-day trip in Canada being 18 with my twin sister. Since that trip, my goal in this life is living there the rest of my life. I ❤ Canada!
Have some funny and/or crazy anecdotes in my like as well.
