Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm getting more experience in couchsurfing. I've stayed in London, Durham and Oxford.
I have also met people up: Santiago, Leeds, Blackpool, and Dublin.
Now I have met the Couchsurfing community in Leeds and I'm really enjoying it. Definitely a good place to meet people to feel at home.

I was a host in Santiago, Chile (my hometown) and it was such a great and rewarding experience. I took them around, and introduced them to some of my friends. I simply love to see how the world opens up to other perspectives and people.

Interests

I'm interested in meeting new people at all times; travelling as a free soul, no limits where I can reach. I like music in English, mainly, and going to concerts.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite band is Blur. I am into indie/brit pop of the 90s and 00's.
Franz Ferdinand, Kaiser chiefs, the strokes, Morrissey, Pulp, suede, the wombats, hard fi, the bravery, of Montreal, vampire weekend, belle and sebastian, the decemberists, Maximo park, The Killers, Two Door Cinema Club, Hot Chip, etc etc etc.
I'm a book lover too: follow the Latin American classics of Borges, Benedetti and García Marquez. I like Dostoievsky too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Paragliding. It was a dizzy, yet fascinating experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Isn't life made of learning and sharing?
I am a teacher. It's my whole life. Teaching to make a significant change on people's lives.
I like volunteering and getting involved with the community where I live. I'm currently part of two organisations: Students' action for refugees and Homed
