I'm originally from Minnesota, however now, "home is wherever the toothbrush is." I'm very easygoing and always down for an adventure. My husband is a funny Brazilian man named Henrique.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think the one of the best parts of traveling is the people you meet along the way. I also think people on Couchsurfing are very open-minded and I really respect this quality in others.

Teach, Learn, Share

Alli: I have been teaching English part-time since 2014 (especially to Spanish and Portuguese speakers) so I can definitely help you with the language.
