Currently a college student from the US studying abroad in Seville, Spain for a semester. I’ve been living here and learning the language since January, and I absolutely love Spanish culture, especially Andalucía. I’m originally from Illinois and go to college at the University of Iowa. I primarily study business and have a minor in Spanish, which I always love to practice. This semester I’ve seen a lot of Europe but I especially love traveling within Spain. Before studying abroad, I had never left the United States and that’s the main reason why I haven’t really used Couchsurfing before. After my program ends in Seville, I want to travel around Europe some more before heading back to the US. I love traveling and learning about different cultures and places, and hope to meet some really cool people through couchsurfing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m pretty new to this app and concept of staying with people I don’t know, but I think it’s a great way to travel and meet people from all over the world. I’m a super easygoing and fun person and love learning about people’s experiences and cultures.

Interests

I love practicing my Spanish and learning about Spanish culture in general. I also love the outdoors and going hiking, swimming, surfing, etc. I’m always down for a night out for casual drinks or to a discoteca.
