About Me

Hi

I am 28 & I lived in Madrid for a year when I finished university after doing a degree in Dance and Culture. I was an English teacher in Madrid and learnt Spanish. I am not fluent but can understand & speak at an intermediate level. I then moved to Ibiza & worked for Xbox promoting a dance game for one summer. I then moved to Berlin with 6 spanish friends & partied/explored a lot of the city on bicycles for 4months and was in a film. I then started to do winter and summer seasons for the past 3years working all around Europe. In the winter i ski everyday :) & am a manager in the best ski resorts in Europe. In the summer I work for a very famous hotel 'ibiza rocks' and manage a famous boat party for them twice a week.

Now I am currently travelling around Mexico, Central & S.America :) since October 2013 backpacking. I have been couch surfing all over the 8 countries we have visited so far with my sister, boyfriend & best friend and had the best time meeting locals. I now have a job in Chile doing a ski season there this May :) (winter 2014). So excited!

As you can see I love to travel, meet new people, learn new languages, take opportunities and I love adventures & living life to the full.

All my friends at home keep asking me to write a biography of my travels and life because I take every opportunity and adventure. You only live once and I live it to the max :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I started travelling around Mexico. My sister & I were greeted with open arms by couch surfers & had the best experiences learning new ways & places by staying with the locals. I'm not a fan of going to stay in hostels all the time & seeing/meeting the same people doing the same route/excursions. I like to go off the beaten track & explore new places & things only the locals know about.

From the amazing experience I have had on couch surfing so far, when I finally get a house, my house is open to everyone always! Mi casa es tu casa :)
