Hello, my name is Natalie Sosa. I am a teacher of elementary school of Social Studies (history of Puerto Rico in specific) and of the Spanish language. I am fascinated by my profession and I feel very proud to be one. I like to learn, to exercise, to run, to go out with my friends, to cook, to venture, to meet new people, to spend time alone, among many other things. Besides having studied as a teacher I studied as a clarinetist for a short time, so I love listening to local and new music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am in CouchSurfing, because I am passionate about meeting new people. When we meet people from different countries, cultures, languages, customs we grow, and that's what I aspire to

Music, Movies, and Books

My music always depends on my mood, but I can say that I like rock in Spanish, reggae, music from the 90's, music from my country (bomba, plena, salsa, reggaeton), among many others.

From my favorite books I could highlight: When I was Puerto Rican by Esmeralda Santiago, Simone by Eduardo Lalo, Trance by Pedro Cabiya, Quintuples by Luis Rafael Sánchez, The noise of things when fell by Juan Gabriel Vásquez.

As for movies that come to my mind, I would mention: Nine Queens, The secret of their eyes, A Chinese story, Sea inside, The life of pi, among others that right now I do not remember.
