Hey hey! I'm a high school biology teacher currently taking a year to travel and volunteer teach abroad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet locals and like-minded people in the places that I travel to!

Interests

I'm a big nature lover who wants to do what I can to help preserve it, and am at my happiest when I am surrounded by it. I will be stopping on a hike to look at birds, leaves, insects, mushrooms, moss and then I will tell you about it 😅
I also like to wander around new towns/cities, have a beer an eat street snacks.
