About Me

Teacher | Fun-haver | Lindy Hopper | Living with a "Why not?" philosophy

What I do: I teach English as a foreign language remotely to adults all over the world via a company called Voxy.

Mindset: I lived abroad teaching English as foreign language from 2014 til the end of 2016 (Enseñé el inglés como lengua extranjera en Bogotá, Colombia and taught in Seoul, South Korea) and I really feel like it broadened my perspectives. I'd love to go live abroad again somewhere else in the future.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the sharing economy! My roommates and I in college hosted many a couchsurfer and loved how the experience brought so many interesting and kind people into our lives that we never would have met otherwise!

Interests

  • singing
  • education
  • hip-hop music
  • lindy hop
  • speaking spanish

Music, Movies, and Books

I love hip-hop and r&b, but also really obscure jazz from the 30s and 40s.

Favorite movies? Maybe Ocean's Eleven, V for Vendetta and The Matrix

I don't have a favorite book but Toni Morrison is my favorite author.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took a 5 day trip by myself to the island San Andrés and it was one of the best times I've had! I highly recommend solo travel.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've been told I'm a great cook? I could teach you some survival Spanish for your next trip abroad, or teach you some Lindy Hop. I can write your name in Korean?

Canada, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru

Countries I’ve Lived In

Colombia, South Korea, Spain
