About Me

I am a freelance journalist who decided to pack all her things and move from Spain to the United Kingdom six years ago, looking for new challenges. My headquarters are a cosy flat with stunning views of the seaside of Brighton (less than an hour from London).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think one of the best ways to get to know a place, culture and a country is with locals who can show you their culture, the best places to visit which are not filled up with tourists. Therefore, Couchsurfing is the place to start.
