About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel to new, amazing places!

ABOUT ME

I am a person who is in love with traveling, spending my time in new places, and meeting new people. I am in love with the outdoors, and prefer to spend most of my time hiking, backpacking, camping and climbing. But of course I also like to chill out inside talking with cool people or watching a good movie.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to travel, and have had the chance to couchsurf a few times throughout my travels in Europe, and am hoping to do it a bit more! I also love hosting, and my flatmate and I have been able to host some people throughout this year in Gijón. I am leaving Gijón soon though, and am hoping to meet some lovely new couchsurfers and surf on their couches!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed couches, others have crashed on my couch, and I have met with couchsurfers for fun activities and events. Every single person I have met has been interesting and unique, and so full of generosity and love. Couchsurfing has given me the chance to connect with some really beautiful people from all over the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Completing the Camino de Santiago, exploring Angkor Wat, getting stranded on an island in Lake Titicaca, hiking in Patagonia, climbing to over 5000 meters in the Andes, experiencing a full moon party in Thailand, climbing a live volcano in Chile... obviously I can't choose just one!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always happy to share my language with anyone that wants to improve their english. I can also speak spanish fairly well. I love to cook and bake, and am happy to share some good vegetarian food.

I am always interested in learning new languages (or at least a few words).
I would love to learn about gardening, cooking, and any crafts that are easy for the artistically challenged.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to make you some delicious vegetarian food, bake some cookies, and share my travel stories and life philosophies.
