Hi, I'm Olivia from New York State, USA. I have been living in Southern Spain for two years. Hablo español así que me puedes escribir en español si quieres.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people (and new friends!). Obviously saving money makes this a plus. But I'm not here to hook up. I legit just want to meet kindred souls while traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like comedies and political dramas. Book-wise, I like to try new things. I bounce between genres (and age-groups... I will always make time to read Harry Potter, haha). Music- I like a mix. Not crazy about electronic/house/EDM (not even sure if that's the correct labels) and I also am not a fan of very harsh music like metal. Other than that I love listening to new stuff, especially songs not sung in English.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This may not be impressive to non-Americans haha but learned how to drive stick shift while living in Spain. In the US it's standard to drive automatic and after 7 years driving automatic it was really scary feeling like I didn't "know" how to drive. Plus I lived in a very mountainous area where I often had to stop uphill at a red-light. Happy to say I am no longer scared of driving my 1990 Opel 😂

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love conversations and sharing stories. If you have a dog or dogs I will give them endless belly rubs and take them on walks if you like/will let me (please let me).
