Overview
About Me
Student from Algeciras, Andalucía who is currently studying Translation and Interpreting in Seville. I don't create much trouble and I only need food and water to be happy, just like a cactus. Although I find it hard to describe myself, I would say I'm easy-going, open-minded and quite funny at times.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think couchsurfing is the best method to really experience travelling to another place.
Interests
Literature, music, writing, learning other languages, drawing weird things when I'm bored, painting, cinema, watching videos of cute animals endlessly, travelling, drinking good beer, trying to cook, etc.
