Hi, my name is Rina! I'm 20 years old and I'm from a border town in the United States and Mexico. I'm studying abroad in Italy for the spring semester and I love to travel. I'm studying linguistics and I hope to become a Spanish teacher in the future. I'm currently an English teacher in an Italian elementary school.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My friend Jenny is a couch surfer and she introduced me to the app. I want to meet new people, specially locals. I think this is the best way to experience a city and hopefully make life long friends.

Interests

Tacos, sushi, music, movies, sports, dancing, traveling, learning, oh and snapchat... I LOVE Snapchat.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love any kind of music and I love when people show me their favorite songs, there's so many I don't have a favorite. Any romantic comedy is a movie I want to watch also horror films! My favorite book is in Spanish, "la vida es corta y luego te mueres".
