I live and work in Madrid, Spain as a translator and have been here for over 5 years now. I’m originally from North Carolina but I consider myself a bit of a world citizen now. The Spanish language is the greatest passion I have. It’s hard to describe in words all the many doors that have been opened to me and opportunities to grow in life just by learning another language. I can talk to you all day about why Spain is one of the best places in the world to live!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I plan for 2017 to be a year full of travels and exploring. Current plans are a trip to Iceland, Finland, and Sweden in March and then in May I plan to walk the Camino de Santiago if anyone is interested!
