Hi! My name’s Katriese and I’m currently a college student living in Ohio. A few years ago, I traveled to Villahermosa, Mexico as an exchange student. Since then, I’ve been making an effort to leave my comfort zone as much as possible, so I’m excited to meet some amazing people with amazing experiences on this site!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I’m here because I love to travel and learn, and I think that connecting with people where you’re traveling makes the experience even better. It seems like an incredible way to make friends, share stories, and make the world feel smaller!

Algo increíble que he hecho

This is the definition of ‘weird flex’, but I got to spend Christmas day last year bungee jumping in Thailand!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I’m not the best cook in the world but I would love to learn! (The one thing I can make well is an American grilled cheese sandwich lol)

I like to draw and paint, and I’m interested in learning about art from different cultures!

I study Linguistics, and would love to talk about it with whoever is interested! I’m also more than willing to practice English with speakers of other languages :)

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Like I said before,I’m happy to help with any questions you might have about confusing phrases, slang, or just English in general.

I can help with chores around the house, or even accompany you on grocery runs, etc. and help out that way! I love going to grocery stores in different countries.

If you have any pets (especially dogs), I’d love to play with them and walk them.
