Hola! I am a Spanish teacher with Dallas Independent School District. I speak 5 languages and have traveled to over 50 countries. Growing up in rural Oklahoma, I identified a need for global experiences and founded two nonprofits Happy World Foundation Inc. & World Experiences Foundation that promote global citizenship education and citizen-to-citizen diplomacy in schools and communities in Oklahoma, Texas and abroad. Here is a link to a TED talk I gave on global citizenship: https://goo.gl/EyuBfF

NOTE: For those who wish to couch surf with me in Dallas, If you give me advance notice, I may pick you up from the airport. Good hygiene is a must for staying with me. I work M-F 8 am - 6 pm.
I can show you around my city in the evenings.
