Overview
About Me
I'm from the south of Spain so I love the sun and a good dip in the beach!!!
I'm really easy going and open minded girl, I love sharing and I'm always willing to learn. A bit impatient but also, dogged.
As everyone in this side, my biggest hobby is travelling and meeting new people for all around the world. So far, I have done as much as I've could but I'll keep trying hard until I my dream comes true, travelling through Asia for at least a year and dive in the Coral Sea. It is ambitious I know, but I will do it some day :D While Im saving the money for that, I dont want to stay at home, that's why I came to England, to make money and to keep discovering new places.
Right now I'm travelling through Central and North America with my partner. We started in November and it's planned to last until February :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Sharing and learning new cultures and experciencies, cooking some spanish food if you like :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Last summer I did the interrail with four friends and many kind people hosted us in Ghent, Ljubljian, Rijeka Budapest and Prague. It was a really nice experience, and sometimes to short time because we've met amazing people.
Afer that, always that I have the opportunity, I try to meet people like over here. That experience changed my way of travel for ever!I think that once that you try it you can't imagine another way to travel. Sharing is living!!
Interests
I really enjoy reading a good book, nomally I like historic novels but when I don't want to think and I haven't got a tv close, I also enjoy romantic novels or short books.
I like to be informed, to know what is going on around me and in the world, even that's so difficult and frustraiting sometimes. But having a good chat, sharing opinions and fixing the world between pints, that's something thtat I love!
I love music, almost every kind of music, especially when it's on live, in a summer festival ;)

Music, Movies, and Books
Right now, I am crazy with Game of Thrones and Vikings but I am also following Shameless. It is impossible for me to choose my favourite one...
Talking about cinema I am not very good at it, I am that kind of person who forget the name of the movie minutes after it finish... but one I won't forget is Into the Wild, for the story and the soundtrack.
As I said before, I love on live music but when I am at home I normally listen jazz, rock, and spanish music in general (not flamenco, fussion we call it :p) My favourite groups are Calle 13 that make rap latino and Eskorzo, sapnish rock band and the amazing Crystal Fighters!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have too big things in my mind, seeing the northenlights in Sweden and skydiving, the second one, is an inexplicable experience for me, just freedom... But the nothernlights are something marvelous, it is a natural show that our mother earth gives us for free! (skydiving is a bite expensive heheheh)
