Hola!

Just another 23 year old girl who loves to travel. I have been living in Spain for two years, and now I am on my dream trip around South America. I end in Colombia, where I will work for 6 months 😁

My ideal holiday abroad would involve lots of aimless wandering around an old city, a few museums and/or galleries here and there, and going out for a beer with a group of people from all corners of the globe.
If I discover some cool vegetarian restaurants along the way, even better!

Will be travelling South America from September and need to improve my Spanish!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Tengo que practicar mi español!

Well I've had a great time in some awesome Hostels, but I'd really like to get a local's perspective from the places I visit, so Couchsurfing seems to be a good way to do this.

When I have my own place, I will definitely return the favour.

Intereses

Spent the past 5 years of my life reading about the ancient Greeks and Romans, Now I find myself fascinated by people and wanting to learn about the world. I'm particularly interested in learning more about the politics and lifestyles of the countries I travel through, especially education...

I'm a creative person. Doodling, acting, and blogging are my hobbies. After a few drinks I seem to think dancing is another. I love to cook, and am more than happy to rustle up something for my hosts. Oh, I'm also vegetarian, but I promise not to tell you all about that - unless, of course, you ask :)

What more? Just ask!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Every new beginning comes from some other end ~ Seneca
The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing ~ Socrates.

Oh, I'm a qualified English teacher so I can definitely teach that.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I'm a friendly, independent but also very sociable person. I have a very dry sense of humour, and apparently a very animated face. If you want to go out, I can entertain you with my enviable dance moves. If you want to stay in, I love a good conversation about the world over some beer or wine!

I will always clean up after myself, and am happy to help cook!

If you prefer I talk with an Irish accent, I can do that too...
