About Me

I would love to become a part of the coachsurfing community and to discover new places while meeting nice people on the way. I'm a Spanish teacher and translator. I also love talking about literature, films, art, languages (of course) and politics. I go to ballet and contemporary dance classes in my free time, and I have just discovered I love baking! I could help you with any language related issue, and talk (or not talk!) about almost everythig while I'm staying with you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I'm looking to visit new cities, while connecting more with other people, and saving a few bucks, of course (I need that, as I'm just a language teacher!). I've tried hostels and hotels in the past, but I think coachsurfing will open new horizons for me at this moment of my life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I mostly like rock, folk, and jazz, but I also like rap a little bit. If it's in a language I don't really speak well, even better! But the bands/artists I listen to the most are:

Kings of Convenience,
Benzeeno,
Sigur Rós,
Billie Holliday,
Kaizers Orchestra,
Vampire Weekend,
Caetano Veloso,
Arctic Monkeys,
Siri Nilsen,
Moddi,
IU,
The Libertines,
Sufjan Stevens
The Strokes, etc

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm about to move to Norway in the middle of winter... so that's a bit crazy.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a Spanish and English teacher and literary translator. I absolutely love books, languages, and literature, so if you also share those interests, I would love to talk about them with you!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Interesting conversations about books, films, games and politics, language help, proofreading in Spanish, homemade chocolate banana bread, and a streching/ introductory ballet lesson! (if that's not too weird)

Countries I’ve Visited

Andorra, Argentina, Belgium, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Paraguay, Spain
