Hi, I'm Angie!! For 17 years of my life I lived in the suburbs of California and never thought outside that bubble. When I was 17 I moved abroad for the first time and haven't stopped traveling since. I'm now living in my 3rd country (Bolivia, Mexico, now Japan). I'm currently an assistant language teacher teaching English in central Japan.
My hobbies are cooking, running, hiking, rock climbing and yoga.
I'm pescatarian so I don't eat meat but I LOVE trying new foods as long as it doesn't have meat. :)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I first got into CS as a host, and loved it!
I've encountered so much kindness in my travels that I can only hope to pay it forward and help out other people.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I like rap music, Latin music (reggaeton, banda, salsa) and listening to calming music while I do yoga or study.
I like to read a lot of travel writing and guide books and Latin American literature. I hope to read more books in Japanese soon.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Also I'm half Cuban, going to Cuba to see my cousins for the first time when I was 21 years old was an amazing, eye-opening, very humbling experience.
