About Me

German/Peruvian who grew up in the UK and is actively trying to travel full-time out of the 6 months I don't work. Made a Couchsurfing account 4 years ago but never used it. My friends have enticed me to give it a go, so here I am.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After years of twiddling my thumbs and making an account but not being active on it, I have decided to take the plunge and travel more authentically meeting new people along the way. I have previously always relied on other platforms such as Workaway but I want to branch out and try other travel platforms too.

Teach, Learn, Share

TEFL certified English teacher, also fluent in Spanish so I would be able to teach you if you are learning the language. Avid horse-rider who is ABRS certified.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a tidy and organised Virgo (I don't like to live up to stereotypes). I have previously stayed with families as an au pair so I have an understanding of how to be a good guest. I can help you with cooking and cleaning if needed, as well as teach you English or Spanish 😀
