Latino de corazón! Currently in Cappadocia for 3 months!

I studies French, Spanish and Italian at University and then became a primary school teacher. Now I’m living the dream working with horses in Turkey!

I love getting to know new people, making new friends, exploring new places and discovering new friends. I am a very spontaneous and relaxed person... I'm always up for making plans at short notice and going out to do something fun!

My Instagram is tommysoames if you want to find out more about me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and discovering new cultures, and I think the best way to do this is to stay with people from the country you are visiting! I love sharing stories about my travels and hearing about other people’s. I am extremely relaxed and easy going.. my friends and family would say I’m too relaxed! And of course I want to share my culinary skills with the world haha!

Interests

My three favourite things in the world are travelling, photography (I have 3 instagram accounts!) and animals (I love seeing exotic animals abroad but my dogs are my two best friends!).

I love learning new languages... I can speak English, French and Spanish... and I can speak quite good Italian. I also learned Arabic for a year but I have forgotten most of it!

Music, Movies, and Books

Amante de reggaeton! My favourite series of books is the Dark Materials Trilogy by Phillip Pullman, and I love the Alchemist by Paolo Coelho. Also anything by Garcia Marquez and Pablo Neruda’s poetry! I will watch anything and everything on Netflix. Some of my favourite series are Elite, La Casa de Las Flores, Narcos, Casa de Papel, Neighbours, Prison Break, Vis A Vis (Locked up) and The Rain. I love watching movies... comedies, thrillers, adventure... a bit of everything!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled around the whole of South America on my own for 15 months and lived in Chile for a year... when I was 17! And I did the highest bungee jump in South and Central America!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would always be up for making spontaneous plans and going out for a drink or a nice meal! I'd love to share all my stories from south america and other parts of the world, and to hear your stories too!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can try to teach you English or Spanish if you don't already and would like to learn, and I love cooking so I can definitely cook for you every now and again! And if you have a dog or children, I’m happy to do dog walking or baby sitting!
