CURRENT MISSION

Teaching English, being a student, experiencing new cultures whenever I can

ABOUT ME

I like books, music and movies. I dig photography and art, and swimming whenever possible. I am a huge fan of scooters and bicycles, and ripping around the countryside. I work with immigrant children in the public school realm, which is intense. I also teach English to adult immigrants and refugees.

PHILOSOPHY

To each their own.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am so grateful for people who have welcomed me into their homes and cities, and shown me a side of their place in the world I might not have otherwise seen. I try to have people stay with me whenever I can, and share ideas and stories with them. When I am abroad again, I hope to meet up with so many people I've met through couchsurfing!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hitchhiked around Western Canada, and had some very hospitable experiences. I have opened up my home to strangers, and it has always provided an opportunity to meet new and interesting people. I have met, traveled, and stayed with some amazing people through CS, and I hope to be a part of this community for many years to come.

Centres d'intérêt

I am studying linguistics right now, and hope to teach abroad again sometime soon. I like seeing live music, drinking good beer, and excellent company. In the summer, I swim in the river as much as I can. In winter, I like to go sledding and snowshoeing. If you are down with any of these activities, I'm sure we'll get along just swell.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I saw some cool animals while traveling. I've had some blissin moments in some very interesting places. Every class that I teach is an amazing experience, and I'm very grateful for the life I have.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Anybody who can cook a great meal will be welcome to stay as long as they'd like, and musical instruments are always encouraged. I am a language teacher, so I am always curious to hear about other people's language and culture.
