About Me

I study biology and english literature at the University of Puerto Rico-Rio Piedras campus, but these past 5 months I've been studying in Spain as a foreign exchange student. My ultimate goal is to become a doctor, but I'm not clear on what specialty yet. I love to read and am a huge movie and netflix addict, which can sometimes be a problem because somedays I would rather stay at home and watch movies all day:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've never been on Couchsurfing before or done anything similar, but towards the end of June I'm going on a eurotrip before I go back to Puerto Rico in July so I thought I'd give it a try. I want to see as much as possible of every city I'm visiting, and what better way to do that than to stay with a local!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't know if it counts as something amazing, but for me it was! I went on my first solo trip to London and did a bunch of super geeky things like take a Doctor Who tour, go to the British Library and the Shakespeare Globe; it was an amazing trip :)

I also stayed a night in the Sahara Desert on my trip to Morocco!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A lot of people don't know a lot about Puerto Rico and its rich culture and complicated ties to the United States, so I'd be happy to share everything I know as a local.

Countries I’ve Visited
