About Me

CURRENT MISSION

living openly

ABOUT ME

Working in Granada as an "auxiliar de conversación" in a public high school. I'm really easy going and and love ending up in ridiculous situations.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't think there's any "meaning to life", but I still think that you should live in a way that makes everyone happiest. The things that I care about most are kindness, openness, and living life as if you were in a massive playground.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing around Spain and Europe while I'm here, and not able to host in my house in Granada. Always down to meet up for a drink or show you around the city if you're new to Granada though.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed in Sevilla, Cádiz and Las Alpujarras, and really appreciate the help of these couchsurfers. I've also met up for local activities in Spain as well as in Morocco. I've never hosted but would like to when I have the right housing situation!
