Hi! I'm Maite, nice to meet you :)

I'm 27 years old spanish girl. I love travelling and exploring not only cities, but new ways of life.
I've shared my culture to families in countries such as Ireland, United States, Mexico and Cuba, while I was studying, learning or volunteering.
I've also shared experiences with people from different countries such as France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Belgium, etc. and I love learning from them.

I'd like to host you, as I think it's a way to make you feel good, and also a way to learn.
I would also like to be hosted, so I can enrich my trip meeting local people :)

I'm respectful and open minded. I like socializing. I'm independent and I also do like being on my own. I'll sincerely share experiences with you, as well as I'll respect your space. I love laughing. I Iove silence.

I consider myself so creative, I love arts, such as music, playing the piano, oil painting or writing. I like going to the opera, theatre and cinema, too.

I'm an adventurous person. I like practicing sports in nature, I like animals and I practice meditation and yoga, as a mental-emotional-spiritual way of living.

I'm willing to share new experiences with you! I think life makes no sense without books and without sharing stories with people from all over the world

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm pretty sure that this way of traveling and hosting will make my trips -and, of course, yours- better.
The main reason to be here is that I'd like to share my house with travelers so they can have a global knowledge about my city and culture, and my particular view of life, which doesn´t mean to share all the travel plan or being the whole time together, but interchanging experiences, perspectives and information.

Also, I think meeting people from all over the world is the second best way to learn (Sorry, books are first ;)...). That´s why I prefer couchsurfing rather than classic ways of traveling.
