Hi, I'm Maritza! :) I currently live and study in Barcelona but I am from Chicago. I really enjoy traveling on my free time. I studied abroad during undergrad and got the traveling bug since. I really enjoy meeting new people and trying new foods. My current obsession is shrimp fried rice and spicy chicken haha. While I try to listen to my doctor, I just can't keep away from spicy food...I blame the Mexican in me. ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking forward to dive into new cultures. I am really into creating lifelong friendships!

Interests

I like trying new things but I also don't mind staying in to talk about life experiences and catching new movies! One weird thing about me is that I LOVE (like love) watching the previews before the movie starts at the theater. I have my family and boyfriend speeding for me so that we don't miss them.
