Hello everyone! I am an Spanish girl, I'm 23 years old, I'm originally from Málaga, in the South of Spain. I've studied Translation and Interpreting in the University of Málaga and now I moved to London in order to find a job and improve my English! I am a bellydancer also (only four years of practice ;P ) and I love dancing, listening to music and travelling. I have itchy-feet, I love living abroad and finding myself out of my confort-zone. I speak English, Spanish and French, and I'm learning a little bit of italiano :). I love languages and I also love meeting people from all over the world, so I can always carry with me a little piece of every country! I love food, I love eating and trying the typical food from each place I visit. I love travelling as a true local and not just as a tourist. I like to share my experiences with other people, and I am also a very good listener, so I like to know others' experiences :) I hate small talk, I love talking about anything that can turn into something nice and funny, but also interesting. I really like to exchange cultural features. I love almost all kind of music and almost all kind of dances. About me, I consider myself as an open-minded girl, thoughtful, sharing and responsible. I laugh at myself all the time. I am a clean person too, I don't like the mess. I forgot to say I love animals!!! :) And I don't smoke. Oh, and I am a passionate of Arabic and Indian music :)

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am on Couchsurfing because I got a recommendation from a friend, and I think it's a very good way to really immerse ourselves into the place we are visiting, which, in my opinion, is the best way of travelling.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love every kind of music, I'm in love with Arabic and Indian Music, but I also like pop, R&B, hip hop, rock. I also love Lana del Rey and Lorde. I love French music. I can't say I have a favourite movie but I liked a lot Slumdog Millionaire. Not a book geek, but I love fantasy books, Anne Frank's Diary and Cien años de soledad.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach languages, I love talking about cultural differences, I think it's very funny to laugh at ourselves and learn from our differences. I love sharing my Spanish recipes with other people! And learn from the others, of course, so let's be foodies!
What I Can Share With Hosts
As I said, apart from some gut-busting Spanish recipes, I can only say I would share all the things I collected from all my travels, as well as pieces of my culture, my studies and my experiences.
My Interests
I love languages, travelling, dancing oriental music :) , and meeting funny people from all over the world, it eliminates lots of prejudices and clichés! It's a beautiful feeling :)
