I'm a Canarian islander who has recently moved to Kansas City, MO with the Midwest-nicers! 🇺🇸 My name's Rebeca and I'm very fond of animals, cycling, cinema, food and beer. I'm currently working as a Spanish culture and language ambassador in a private school in KC. I've always been into volunteering and supporting immediate local communities. Most of the projects I've taken part in have been environment-related. I'M VAXXED! 💉

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
... because I travel mostly alone and I really enjoy myself meeting with locals to hang out with! I do resonate with the altruist core of the CS philosophy too. Also, when you stagnant in a place and you get to host a CS... it just sparkles it all!
Music, Movies, and Books
I literally listen to all kinds of genres but if I were to highlight the artists I mostly listen to... -Pedro Pastor -Satin Jackets -Dua Lipa -Natalia Lafourcade 🌼 -Raffaella Carra THESE DAYS I'M HOOKED ON THIS SONG: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBlqct2QJgo&list=RDdBlqct2QJgo&index=2&ab_channel=RigobertaBandini-Topic And when it comes to flicks and films... Giallo + dramas. -Gaspar Noe -David Lynch Books and academic literature - mostly dealing with gender, sexuality and culture studies.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I've ridden on a hot-air ballon over Capadoccia, Turkey - definitely one of the most majestic places I've ever been to! I've been to Moulin Rouge, Paris - WHAT A SHOW! I've hiked La Caldera de Taburiente, La Palma - definitely one of the most demanding trails I've ever hiked! I've biked across the state of Missuri thru THE KATY TRAIL! 4-days non-stop pedaling!

What I Can Share With Hosts
I'm super fond of cooking, film debates and dancing! I LOVE talking about personal experiences; how people's behaviour change whenever you cross borders...
My Interests
I'm a cinephile so whenever I can catch a film festival or hit any theatre, there I am! I love sharing a low-lit common space with strangers. I LOVE meeting with foreigners wherever I feel like a local and viceversa. I just find it so stimulating when you meet and connect with people!! I should also highlight my drive towards food and cooking! I feel pity for the ones who keep track of calories... I just go ahead with all kinds of food but eat in moderation! Dogs? Who said dogs? I'm the kind who pets every single dog being walked on the streets!!
