I was born during an earthquake in Santa Cruz, California but have lived in North Carolina most of my life. I love traveling but haven't done much of it during my college years so now I want to take time to explore and discover new places. And in fact, I think I'm doing good on this traveling desire of mine because I am currently serving as a Peace Corps volunteer in South Africa

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm couchsurfing because I'm really interested in meeting genuine people with the possibility of becoming good friends during my travels.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm currently working as an English teacher in South Africa through Pea fee Corps so I'm a strong believer in teaching, learning, and sharing. The only way we can get past stereotypes and negative perceptions is by educating the youth at an early stage the awesomeness of world diversity. Also education opens a lot of doors and I'm grateful to my parents who took it upon themselves to stress this importance to me at an early age.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer stories about my background, language lessons in Japanese and Turkish, and even give a short tutorial in graphic design if you're into that kind of thing. Also I love dancing so I don't having small impromptu dance sessions.
