Hi! You can call me Maryou :)

CS IS NOT A DATING APP, IF YOU ARE LOOKING THAT, THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT PLACE.
*****I WONT BE ABLE TO HOST FROM FEBRUARY TO JUNE 2024*****

I’m a peruvian woman living in Madrid for now.
It’s been a long time since my last time living in Europe (almost six years!), so I’m back in CS to host and also to ask for a couch.

I used CS for the first time when I was living in Italy while doing my Erasmus at Genoa University, and I really get to know the spirit of it, and I loved it. Get to know locals -even they are not from the cities you visit - it’s special and almost a gift. To share time and space, but specially the safety of a home, it’s invaluable.

Some things about me: I’m a lawyer of profession and I also want to be a pilot (I haven’t start pursuing this yet though). I love wine (tinto obvio) and coffee, so I’ll always say yes to it (also to beer, chocolate, pisco sour, all the peruvian food and to travel). I could be walking for hours if I’m with good company or if I’m in a beautiful - architectural talking - city by my own. If I’m in the mood, I would cook an almost five fork dish (I like to cook but I’m not that good, just kidding). Well, I don’t want to spoiled you more, so, the rest when we meet :)

For hosts: On March I’ll be traveling around Spain during the holidays, I have plans to visit Seville and Málaga, so, if I ask you for a coach, hope you can consider my offer. You won’t regret! I’m a very independent woman, who likes to have fun at discos and dance, but also who prefers a good talk with a glass of wine. I like to walk or biek, watch new architecture around, and share music.
Hope we can enjoy the exchange of cultures and good travel anecdotes.

***** For surfers: I WONT BE ABLE TO HOST FROM FEBRUARY TO JUNE 2024*****
I have a comfy coach in my living, you can stay there without any problem. I live near the airport so, also if you have any emergency you can contact me! (I know what it is to stay a night outside the airport or on the street, it’s not that funny after the first time). Sadly I cannot host during weekdays, because my timetable doesn’t allow me that honor. Actually I’m doing my Master in Tax Law, so it’s kind of hard to have time to share with you mostly during weekdays. But if you are here on weekends, I can host you without problem! … I live with my little dog named Sid, so, to ensure you read my profile, you just have to start the request saying “I love pets”, to get to read it, otherwise I won’t even answer. I do this because of the quantity of requests I received every single day.

Thanks for reading, maybe we meet soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m kind of old in CS, but if you ask me now why I’m in CS, the answer will be, to share. To share time and knowledge. To learn, because you learn for anyone always something new.

I think we learn everyday, so if one day it's our turn to learn together, that would be a pleasure.
