About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world and have fun doing it!

ABOUT ME

I am in English teacher in South Korea. I like to play sports, camp, hike, scuba dive / snorkel, read, crochet, laugh, and meet new people.

I love being outside. I love even more that I live near the ocean now!

My favourite colour is orange.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm not sure what my philosophy is just yet, I think that is why I travel. I still have a lot to learn about myself and the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had a few people stay at my place in the last few months. I always had fun and learned a lot each time. I haven't couch surfed officially yet but plan to in the near future!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am really enjoying Korean Films at the moment, but I'm not really a movie person.

I usually prefer mellow, acoustic guitar kind of music but I like all kinds.

I really like John Irving and David Mitchell. To Kill a Mocking Bird, Catch-22, Sidhartha, Tuesdays with Maury and East of Eden are some of my favourites by other Authors.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I saw recently was a tour bus of older women (adjumas) dancing in the isle way. The whole bus was rocking!

San Blas in Panama is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen and experienced.

Roasting marshmallows over lava in Guatemala was cool...realizing we had everything to make smores was amazing!

I see amazing things everyday...especially on Jeju. I can't write them all down

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to learn through experience. No books can teach you what you can learn through interacting with others and seeing the world.

Countries I’ve Visited

Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, France, Guatemala, Honduras, Netherlands, Nicaragua, Panama, Philippines, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, South Korea
