Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is no better way to get to know a place than staying with a local!! I feel extremely fortunate to be a part of such an incredible platform that brings people of different cultures and backgrounds together in the best way possible. Couchsurfing has exponentially enriched my travel experiences and has allowed me to cross paths with several amazing individuals :)

Interests

Life! Getting to know new people and cultures, psychology, anthropology, nature, stargazing and sunset watching, deep conversation, laughing, music, dancing (salsa, bachata, bellydancing), Firewalking, trying new foods, learning new things. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like lots of different types of music, especially classic rock and folk. Mainly music from the 60s/70s/80s, but I also like reggaeton and latin music to dance to.

My favorite movies are Life of Pie and Forrest Gump. I also like oldies such as Streetcar Named Desire.

Anything thought-provoking, well-made, good-natured.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camino de Santiago
Completed the Death Road in Bolivia although I flew off the bike twice
Becoming a Firewalking instructor
Gained 15 kilos in 2 months at the end of my first long trip to Europe (no regrets!)

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I love dancing, especially salsa and bachata, and could teach you some basic steps! I could also help with English or Spanish and have worked as a nanny and waitress (very exciting haha) so can maybe help out with something pertaining to those skills.

Learn: Anything and everything!! How to cook well (I am trying so hard), dance steps, words in different languages, the secret to not finishing 12th in Mario Kart, etc. I believe you can always learn things from those around you and every insight is valuable

What I Can Share with Hosts

Share: What it is like to walk on fire, lots of belly laughter, a travel story exchange - I get so excited talking to fellow travelers and hearing about their experiences around the world!!! There is little that inspires me more! This community is very special and dear to my heart. However travel stories or regular everyday life stories, I would love to get to know more about you :) I have a passion for deep conversations and light up when exploring different viewpoints. (Or talking about personality types - woohoo enneagram!)

Also, my dream job is to become a therapist or teacher so I am always happy to offer an empathetic, non-judgemental ear to listen :)
