Hello!
My name is Anna, I am an optimistic, easy-going, friendly person who loves traveling and cultural exchange. I just finished up two years with the Peace Corps in West Africa, and am now looking to travel throughout Southeast Asia (just can't seem to get enough of seeing the world). I love meeting new people and learning more about new ways of life and culture. I like to think I'm super easy to get along with and I'm always down to try new things!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love salsa and bachata dancing (not an instructor but I've been dancing for five years) so I would be more than happy to teach you a few steps or take you out social dancing!

I am almost fluent in French and love speaking it with others, I'm more than willing to practice French anytime.
