I am a PhD student at the University of Leeds. I am 32 years old. I am studying transport.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel more and whilst traveling making new friends. I would like support others when traveling sometimes as guests or for meeting up. I like to share my culture and learn from other cultures and I though this option was a very good way.

Interests

I am studying French and I love to travel and making new friends. I love pets, particularly dogs, although I do not have any right now because I cannot give them the necessary attention. I do not smoke. I like to read novels and I love to dance salsa, I am also taking singing lessons and Tango. I like climbing and going to the gym. I usually do Park Run on Saturdays at Leeds.

My favourite book are historical novels and dramas from real life. Last book I read was ´The unbearable lightness of being' and I am currently reading 'The whistleblower'

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My first trip to Europe I did it all by myself when I was 22 years old I visited Italy, UK, and Swetzerland. It was a challenge because it was my first trip alone and I couldn't speak English fluently.

Teach, Learn, Share

This is quite hard to answer, all I can say is that I am keen on teaching anything I am familiar with, like my culture and the languages I speak.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a couch in my current flat that is available if someone needs to stop at Leeds. I can share time in the afternoons to go around Leeds and visit the main attractions.
