Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and explore new (or familiar) places with fresh eyes.

Also, if you speak Spanish, I would really enjoy communicating in Spanish. I can guarantee I will make mistakes, but I appreciate all opportunities to practice even though I'm timid about my Spanish a lot of times. We could also do a half English half Spanish thing, if you're trying to practice your English.

Si hablas español, me gustaría comunicar en español. Voy a cometer errores, pero aprecio todas oportunidades para practicar, aunque estoy tímida con mi español muchas veces. También hablar parte en inglés y parte en español si quieres practicar tu inglés.

Interests

To absorb as much from my experiences as I can, whether what I take home is a new world view or a new way to fold my laundry. I also love hiking, photography (both digital and film), writing, gardening, laughing, listening to music, and fruit. Boy, do I love fruit.

Para absorber tanto como sea posible de mis experiencias, si aprendo un nuevo visión mundial o un nuevo modo para plegar el lavado de ropa. También me encanta el senderismo, la fotografía, jardinería, la risa, escuchar a música, y la fruta. Me encanta fruta mucho.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trail maintenance in Denali National Park, Alaska, where to look up from my work was to catch a glimpse one of the most beautiful mountain ranges in the world.

I love to hear others talk about what makes them passionate. I can teach a bit about photography and environmental issues.
