Hi! my name is María. I grew up in Madrid, Spain. I moved to UK in 2012 and in February 2015 I decided to quit my job as a nurse and backpack through Latin America for 4 months. I discovered a new sense of independence, experienced new cultures, and saw and touched history. I came home empowered. During my trip, I met great people from different parts of the world and did couchsurfing as well.
I am currently based in Madrid, don't know for how long.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am passionate about travelling and meeting new people
