Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Explore Europe. Hit every continent. Make new friends all over the world. Have a place to come back to when I return as an old lady!
ABOUT ME
Making friends is what I do best. I am a runner and I looove the sun. my ideal living situation would be living in San Francisco, California in a tiny little apartment so i have an excuse to get out every day and stay out. I miss Seville, Spain where i lived for four months from January to May of 2009, but I am now back in Spain teaching English for a year, living in a small city near the ocean called Huelva. Despite the jokes the rest of Spain makes about my city, I love it! The people are warm and the sun always shine and the beach is a 20 minute bus ride away.
PHILOSOPHY
We live only once. People are generally good if you give them the chance. Don´t be too scared to try new things. JUST GO FOR IT.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have couchsurfed in France and England and loved it. I am still friends with one girl who visited me when she came to the States. When I get to Huelva, Spain and have my own room, I'll be able to host people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I couchsurfed for the first time in May 2009 in Paris, France with an awesome girl who I saw when she visited the States!!! I loved the experience - much more cultural and fun with my witty, sarcastic French friend to wander the streets of Paris with me. Shout out to Alix!! :-) also couchsurfed with Ali in London, and i had a blast on the east side!
