ABOUT ME

I am from Chicago, IL!
However, I'm currently living in Malaga, the capital, a beautiful city on the Mediterranean, Costa del Sol. Best known for being the birthplace of the legendary Pablo Picasso and of course, one of my favorite Spaniards, Antonio Banderas. I have been loving it over here! The weather, the food, the people, the scenery all great!! Over the past year and a half I have been an English teacher assistant at a bilingual school here in Malaga. I guess this is what brought me here, along with my desire to break free, live in the moment, travel as much as I can, see as much as i can, experience as much as I can!

About me: I'm always willing to return a favor! I'm a fun-loving person, polite and respectful, but I'll let you be the judge of that : )

Over the next couple of months I would love to travel to the following countries:

Portugal (Lisbon)
Germany (Berlin/Munich/Frankfurt)
Russia (Moscow, St Petersburg)
Hungary (Budapest)
Poland (Warsaw, Krakow,...)
Ireland (Dublin)
Denmark (Copenhagen)
Turkey (Istanbul)
India
Egypt (Cairo)
Indonesia
Australia
Brazil
Madagascar
South Africa
Dubai

It's a bold plan but I aspire to give it my best shot. If you live in any of these countries/cities I'd love to hear from you!!!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm open minded, so I think!
My personal philosophy is: Carpe Diem!
Be happy and live your life with no regrets! Treat others as you'd like to be treated! I think it's as simple as that... sometimes

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Esau in Madrid...I have to admit that I had my reservations at first, however when I met Esau in Madrid I was sold on Couchsurfing. Esau was the best host you could ask for and the perfect ending to my hectic trip from Italy!
