ABOUT ME
I am a nice girl and I love meeting new people. I can talk about interesting topics: education, political, art, music, cinema... I am not an expert but I like to share my opinion about things with other people, I like to ask loads of questions to other people if I want to know more about their culture, job, pasion in life or actitud in general. Sometimes I am quite philosophical or that is what some people say.
I like to chill and watch a good films, talk after a good meal or while drinking a beer or a tea.
I also like to go out, dancing, have some drinks, socialise and meet new people. It just depends on the day!
I am a teacher and I really believe education can change the world. I love learn new things, about other cultures, music and different arts, curious things in general.
I am very respectful, quiet and easygoing. If there is something that I don´t like I will say it, I am honest and sometimes It is hard for me to shut up.
I follow my dreams and I try not to put walls in front of me. If I have a goal I will try to reach it by working very hard, at some point I will get there.
PHILOSOPHY
Education is the most powerful weapon.
Treat others as you want to be treated.
I have a dream.
Follow your impulses and your dreams.
You can get it if you really want.
La vida es fácil, si sabes como.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I would like to meet different people, cultures and countries.
When I had a space I hosted people in my house and I am always happy to meet new people just for a chat in a pub or to show them the city where I live.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I started in couchsurfing while I was doing my Erasmus in Italy three years ago. It was a really nice experience that´s why I want to keep doing it.
I met people from countries that I´ve never visited as South Africa, Greece, Poland or Germany. It is always nice to learn about their own countries and cultures.
Interests
I love education I am lucky that I want to spend my time doing it as a job. I like to be round children and also teach adults. When you love education and you are implicated (usually) you are a politic lover as well because you need to know what is happening round you, in your local area, in the whole world.
I love watching films! I love cinema and theater. It is wonderful to feel things inside while seeing great preformances.
I like travelling, visit new places and create new memories in a place with new people. I usually go to visit the museums and go to see the important monuments of the city but I love going to a new city and get lost through their people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Every place show you something beautiful, every country has lovely things and nice people to meet.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am a Spanish teacher so I love sharing my passion about Spanish language and culture, also I am able to be critical because this is the culture that I know most.
I like talking about what does it means to be an immigrant even if I am from Europe.
I want to learn something new everyday. I don´t want to stop learning or sharing things.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A good laugh, nice conversation and the chance to meet someone different.
