About Me

Hola! Acabo de licenciarme y vivo ahora en Valencia. Estoy aquí aprender español y ver este país. Soy un invitado muy agradable, me gusta cocinar, relajarme y conocer las nuevas gentes. En mi tiempo libre me gusta leer, ver Netflix, caminar en los lugares bonitos, y pasar el rato con mis amigos. No hablo mucho español pero quiero mucho aprender! Si me aceptas como tu invitado vamos a disfrutar nuestro tempo juntos, y seré muy respetuoso de tu espacio, y ayudar tanto como sea posible.

What's up my dudes! I just finished university and I'm now living in Valencia this year. I'm here to see more of this beautiful country and learn the language. I'm a pretty chill guest, I love cooking, hanging out and getting to know people. In my free time I like to hang out with my pals, cook, watch netflix or read. If you accept me as your guest we will have a good time together and I will be very respectful of your space, and help out as much as possible.
