Hi I'm Sara (or Smo, as some people call me)! I'm a marine science instructor on Catalina Island in California! I teach marine science to a bunch of kids and take them snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, etc. I absolutely love my job, but I'm taking a break from it to live in Spain for the summer as an au pair. I really want to make friends while I'm here, so I thought I'd try to meet people on here!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am really passionate about traveling and meeting new people! I feel like spending time with locals is the best way to get immersed into a culture.

Interests

Anything outside! I especially love the ocean and everything in it! I also enjoy scuba diving, snorkeling, hiking, exploring new places, meeting new people, and drinking good beer with good friends :)
