Overview
About Me
Hey! I'm currently freewheeling after graduating last year, and looking to explore as much of Europe as I can. I guess I divide my time between teaching online, reading, and hanging out with whoever I meet on my travels.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm couch surfing so that I can meet some cool people and live cheaply while travelling Europe and teaching online.

Music, Movies, and Books
I listen to a lot of folk music - Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Tom Waits, that kind of thing. I also really like Classic Jazz - Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, that kind of thing. My favourite composers are Rachmaninoff and Schubert.
I watch a lot of films - I really like The Marx Brothers, and Woody Allen. I think my favourite movie is probably Wild Strawberries, by Ingmar Bergman.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've just come back from three months on Lesvos, where I was volunteering in Kara Tepe refugee camp. My job was to distribute tea and clothes.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm hoping I can learn some Spanish while I travel, and I'd also love to exchange music and films.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'd be happy to teach some English. My job after all is to teach English to people who speak it as a second language.
