I’m from the US, but have lived in Shanghai, Spain and am living in Kuwait - all teaching positions or the like :) I love traveling, meeting new people, and spectacular views.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting people and learning from them. I also love sightseeing! Natural wonders blow my mind and feed my adventuring soul - this is the kind of thing I’m after when I travel!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading! I wish I made more time for it, but I thoroughly enjoy snuggling in with a good book. Typically a dystopian novel, anything about World War II, or something with a twist ending :)

As for music, I’ll listen to almost anything, but I prefer happy-go-lucky music that would be perfect for a road trip through the mountains. I love a strong guitar/ukulele lead.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swam with sharks in Maldives and gotten my PADI scuba diving license in the Philippines!

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach every single day and love to learn! I’m very curious and get excited easily. The world astounds me and the people in it amaze me. As I see it, everyone can teach everyone something and that’s why I love traveling. That’s the beauty of growing up & experiencing life!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I also have a few good stories about traveling, so make sure to ask me about those. Maybe start with the one time I was in Laos :)
