About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Millorar el meu català i mejorar mi español

ABOUT ME

Student (Minnesota/Barcelona)...Linguistics and Hispanic Studies...Translation/interpretation sounds fun... But so does studying/documenting endangered languages for the rest of eternity...In the U.S., I have a wonderful road bike on which I will one day cross the country... I can't begin to explain how nerdy I am about languages. French, Spanish, Ancient Greek, Portuguese, Catalan. Basque is next on my list. Then German. Then Swedish...Music makes me happy. But don't expect me to be able to tell you what I usually listen to...Thinking about my future makes my stomach do flips. This is a good thing.

PHILOSOPHY

"Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently couchless. I am thus only surfing and/or meeting people. I'm completely new to this, so I have yet to participate in any way. That said, it would be great to meet people in Barcelona or anywhere along the way in my travels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a CS virgin.

Interests

long-distance biking, bowling (seriously), juggling (still serious), learning languages, studying linguistics, traveling, coffee.
