Take every opportunity that's presented to me!
ABOUT ME
Spent the last 3 years teaching English in Korea and Vietnam. This past summer I was able to travel and camp in many of the national parks in the northwest US. I just moved to Argentina, where I will be teaching English, learning Spanish and enjoying the Argentine lifestyle. I love traveling, meeting new people, eating food, and learning new languages and cultures. I am fairly easygoing, independent, adventurous, and I can adapt easily to different cultures and people. I may not be the most punctual person in the world, but otherwise I am very reliable.
PHILOSOPHY
Best summed up by one of the most genius men of our time...
"The problem, often not discovered until late in life, is that when you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. The most successful people in life recognize, that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation. For me, I am driven by two main philosophies, know more today about the world than I knew yesterday. And lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you."
- Neil deGrasse Tyson

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Couchsurfed throughout Taiwan and it was an incredible journey. I also surfed in South Africa, the Philippines, California and Seattle.
