About Me

From NY. I recently came to the Czech Republic, and started teaching English. So far this place has been amazing, and I'm overwhelmed by the hospitality and kindness that has come my way.

Inspired to learn more European history, Jewish history, and linguistics.
Hiking, skiing, camping, climbing

In a former life, I studied computer science at a prestigious university, and then worked at Facebook. Why I decided to become an English teacher, only God knows!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really like the idea of a karma-based accommodation network. Pay-it-forward, or back, as the case may be!
