I am Raquel (24 years old) and currently studying Environmental Law, I am highly interested in learning new things and getting as much as I can from this experience called life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always enjoyed not only travelling but getting to know other cultures and personal experiencies (I think it is the best way to grow and learn).

Interests

I love learning languages, reading, trying vegan or vegatarian food (and putting on practice new recipies), taking long walks, a cup of tee or coffee with good company.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy different types of music (a little bit of everything). I don't know if I can chose a favourite band or singer... I defenitely enjoy Coldplay, U2, John Mayer, Keane, Mumford & Sons (pop-rock I guess) but I also fancy a little bit of Aretha Franklin type of music, jazz, and also this new vibe of "tropical house".

I do not have a favourite movie or book because I am usually the type of person which do not like to rewatch or reread anything. Some movies I remember I enjoyed are: The list of Shindler, The reader, Match point or Slumdog millionaire. I also love musicals.

Book wise, I enjoy thrillers and mystery stories. I don't have favourite authors but I liked Paulo Cohello, Carlos Ruiz Zafon and Dan Brown.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't think I've acomplished amazing things yet, but I think I am still young and on the right track! I am currently just trying to live on line with my values and principles, but definetely I am interested on volunteering someday.
