Hi I'm Paulaine Sano, I'm currently spending my last semester in Valencia, Spain as a Music Business major in Berklee College of Music. I'm a vocal principle and love to sing R&B and Jazz as my main genres. I grew up in Los Angeles, CA and loved every bit of culture it had to offer -- whether it be music, food, art, or music festivals. I would love to experience the same in many different other countries!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why I'm here:

- To experience new cultures with locals from different cities.
- I'm currently studying abroad and couchsurfing would be an awesome alternative to spend less money (you know that young college budget).
- To meet new people!
- Eat good food with the new people I meet!
