I've always intended to travel the world. I grew up in Orlando, and have finally taken the plunge and moved to South America. I am planning to live in Chile for 2 years, and during that time I hope to visit as much of South America as possible. Then off to another continent!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A lot of my friends from Uni suggested couch surfing to me. So I thought I'd give it a try. It seems like a great way to get to know people who are passionate about traveling (rather than touring) new places.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning about new cultures, and I have always had an affinity for studying different languages. I studied French and a little bit of Spanish at uni. Right now, I am trying to develop fluency in French and Spanish. I am also studying Russian and Finnish in my spare time. I have been teaching English for almost 6 months now, and I love to teach/ practice.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am super clean: a personality trait that I can't seem to shake. I am also not a super loud person. I still like to go out for a party, dancing etc. I am very respectful of people's privacy, property, and opinions. And, of course, I would treat anyone's home in the same way that I would want them to treat mine. :) I'd love to help anyone working on a learning English or Spanish, and I am happy to share a meal.
