ABOUT ME

An English teacher on the move. For the past 7 years, I've been living and teaching in a handful of countries, led by an insatiable curiosity to connect dots and understand the world around me. Currently, I'm wrapping up a year of teaching in Nampula, Mozambique and am doing some travels through Europe with my girlfriend before heading back to work in Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic. I consider myself an easy-going and thoughtful person who appreciates the generosity and insight of people/Couchsurfers who make traveling a richer experience.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is grist for the mill

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted travelers on and off the records of Couchsurfing, and I've used the site as a tool to meet up with cool and interesting people during my travels. Chatting, cooking, sharing movies/music, checking out the local scene...I love it all!
