Description

I am traveling through Central and South America starting in Mexico City in January 2024 and finishing in Santiago, Chile. My motivation for doing this is to improve my Spanish, immerse myself in the culture that I love, and potentially find a country I want to live in.

I'm in love with the Spanish-speaking world. I love the culture, the food and the way of life. I have been learning Spanish now for 1.5 years so I am starting to become conversational. I want to immerse myself in the ways of life of local people. I am from a small town just outside of London where not many people talk to each other and there is no sense of community. I’m looking to change this for my life and embrace the community feel and connectedness the people of Latin America embrace. I believe that everybody in this world has something to teach you, a story to tell and a passion to share. Strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet. All you need to do is talk to them.

I am very adventurous and love learning new things. In my free time, I love to cook, go to Brazilian JiuJitsu, the gym and hike, read books about psychology/spirituality and listen to music (and dance). My favourite music is Regatton and Bachata.

More details about my language interests
I believe language is what connects people. I have been learning Spanish now for 1.5 years and can have a conversation. I would love to try and speak as much Spanish as possible whilst travelling as I want to become fluent. I am TEFL-certified to teach English and currently teach students from all around the world how to speak English. I am more than happy to help you with your English.
