CURRENT MISSION
Discover new places and cultures, and also meet people
ABOUT ME
I'm a very dynamic and enthusiastic person, who loves traveling and meeting new people, places and cultures. I also love languages (I studied Translation and Interpreting) and learning new things about whatever every day! I think everybody in this world has something to say, and teach, and learn. I love hearing people's stories and sharing many kinds of conversations.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've hosted some people while I had my student apartment in Toronto, and I had very good experiences. Also, after my schoolyear in Canada I went on a trip and surfed couches in Philadelphia, Washington DC, Boston, Toledo (Ohio), Chicago and Pittsburgh. The experience was amazing! I loved meeting so many great people and learning things about cities that could only be revealed to me by somebody who lived there! :)
I've also attended some CS events in Toronto, such as the conversation nights at the Rivoli, and later in Brussels (where I spent a year studying at university) I attended conversation tables (in French to learn it and in Spanish to help people practicing it) and I've had really good times with all the CS activities organized, I think you can find amazing people in this network.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I saw the amazing Niagara Falls surrounded by snow and ice. I met awesome people on CS, and they showed me beautiful places I'd never thought I'd end up in... and I could add 1,000 amazing moments or more, but I don't want you to get bored; I'd better tell you when we meet :)
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach Catalan, Spanish and English (and maybe a liittle bit of French, Italian and Arabic...), some cooking, some curiosities about random stuff... I love learning new things, and sharing experiences and conversations that make me think and be aware of things I'd never thought about or I'd never known enough about!
