LA GUIRI

colloquial Spanish noun - foreigner

¡Bienvenidos a todes! Welcome to my 2022 Gap Year.
After relocating from Melbourne, Australia to Torre del Mar, Spain for 5 months as an English Language Assistant, I have since been backpacking through Eastern Europe, around the UK, and in Costa Rica (among other places).
Now, I am back home safe and sound.
