Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Traveling to find the meaning of life as it is for me
PHILOSOPHY
I am a down to earth kind of girl, a go getter, always looking for whats next on my list that I can learn or do that will help me in my future. And on the other hand I can have alot of fun! I tend to worry a bit too much about what is coming next in mu life, but I am working on that! I love to laugh, its the best remedy ever! I try to learn as if I were to live forever and live as if I were to die tomorrow.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I heard about couch surfing from a friend who was an Au pair in Spain also. I was telling her about my backapcking trip and she told me about couchsurfing...So I decided to give it a try, and I loved it! Its an amazing invention!!!LOL....You get to meet people, and know more about the country you are visiting then if you were to stay in a hostal and just hang out with other bacpackers...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Amazing things I have seen: I was truly breathless when I saw Flamenco in Granada, it was so beautiful, the passion they transmit through the dance and their facial expressions is tremendous !
Funny thing Ive seen: in a store in Paris: a book on how to take a shit in the woods lol !!!
Something Amazing I have done: Teaching English to groups of Spanish kids with no experience and no training; after being there for 2 weeks only, not knowing the language very well, and living with my boss family for 7 months (dont get me wrong they were great but managing all of this together I think is amazing!)
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach English (I was an english teacher in SPain for 7 months) I can also teach you french (Canadian french not the one from France...very different ,,,well, the accent ,,lol)
I played piano and thaught piano for a few years. So I guess if you have a piano I could show you the song "chopsticks" for example..lol
I danced for 10 years, so I can show you a few ballet positions : )
I speak Spanish, and I want to improve it, so if you do to, we can practice together, even if its not your first langguage either.
