About Me

I teach English at the local University. I like meeting good people and travelling when possible, though with Covid and all, it has been quite some time. I try to be a positive person and learn something from every situation or any person I get to know.

When I'm home, my hobbies are quite nerdy. I like videogames, table top games, watching series, learning new things about music (though I'm not really a musician), reading, and having silly/philosophical chats with a ice cup of tea or coffee.

When travelling it's pretty much the same, plus taking long walks to get to know the city, finding nice places to eat, dance, do karaoke, or any interesting thing that comes my way.

Me da mucha pereza escribir todo eso de nuevo en español, pero espero que se entienda lo escencial...y si no, siempre me pueden preguntar! :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been on couchsurfing for a while, and the experiences I've had as a host and also as a guest, have always been positive.

After Covid, I'm feeling like travelling and meeting travellers again. Unfortunately, my house is a bit crowded right now, so I can't really host, but I'm always willing to meet people to hang out or to be a sort of guide if needed.

I'm also really hoping I'll get to go to Vancouver next year, so it would be good to have a chance to meet some local people willing to make new friends.

Interests

Truthfully, I have interest in almost anything anybody can tell me. I especially like those people who will talk about what they love with enthusiasm and that spark in their eyes. I don't care if they're talking about literal worms. It makes me happy to be around them :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list, but just off the top of my head...

Books: Chronicles of Narnia, The Hobbit, The Lord of the rings. I mostly like fantasy, although I also like mistery sometimes. Sherlock Holmes is my favourite from that genre.

Movies: I don't watch a lot of movies...the only ones that come to mind are Ghibli movies or the MCU.

Music: Anything and everything. I don't really have favourite singers or bands. I just like songs!

Manga (yes, it counts!): One Piece is my absolute favourite. If you know, you know...if you don't, don't ask me unless you have time lol

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This soooo subjective...

To me, I guess it would be travelling to the other side of the world alone at 21 for a year for no reason at all ...

Teach, Learn, Share

Absolutely anything, I'm always happy to learn and teach.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make meals to share, share some experiences of course, I can also help around with tasks if you need it. I don't mind at all.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, England, France, Ireland, New Zealand, Scotland
