About Me

Hello everyone,

Above anything else, I am a student of the world. I'm here to learn as much as I can and absorb things from every culture and country that I visit. Sometimes I get passionate about those things and want to pass them on. That's why I decided to teach English!

I'm currently on my "Europe Trip" and I'm using it to gather ideas for where I might like to teach in the future. If you are also an EFL teacher I would love to hear from you!

I love anything that let's me have a good time with other people: Sports, games, dancing, music. I really want to enjoy all of my time here in europe with as many great people as I can.

Overall I'm a very tolerant person and there is really nothing on this earth that I "hate". I can say that I do especially love animals and nature though!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in Couchsurfing because it will allow me to experience the real culture of a city, and so I'm not constantly surrounded by other travelers and tourists. I hope to learn about your country by staying with you, in exchange for sharing part of my own culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was given a coop of chicks to raise from day 1 the first time I WWOOF'd.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can do some English tutoring if you ask me nicely. But I'm sure you would rather just talk anyway ;)

I'm an elementary piano student but I really appreciate all music. So if you want to show me something about your instrument of choice I would really appreciate it.

We can share our time together through music, food, (beer?), and talks.

I can share the most valuable thing I have in this world, my time!
