Im live in Madrid and work as an English teacher. I'm also a writer of fiction and poetry, and I love all things literary. Im just looking to see some cool stuff before it's too late and the years have passed me by and I'm settled down and all that. I still don't know what I'm going to 'do' with this life of mine, but as the Dead sang, "at least I'll enjoy the ride."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm always open to meet new people from other places, walks of life, times,etc and hear their perspective so I may better form my own and better still make my way
