I'm a passionate Spanish teacher (5th grade bilingual class, so teach math and science and reading ALL in Spanish) and when I'm not teaching I try to travel as much as I can! Traveling rejuvenates me and I love learning about other cultures and meeting new people from all around the world. I fell in love with Spain when I studied there for university, so much that I ended up living there for a year. Even though I'm now back State side, I try to travel outside to see different parts of the world during the summertime.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I'm going to South Africa this summer and am arriving a few days before my program anticipates me so I need to look for where I'll be sleep for 4 days in July in Cape Town- I've heard good things about couchsurfing from some friends and figure it may be a neat experience than looking for a hostal.

Done the Camino de Santiago in Spain.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can teach others how to juggle and Spanish. I'd love to learn about other cultures more and scuba dive one day. I'd enjoy sharing experiences with others, as well as teaching ideas.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I can share my travel experiences, my Spanish/English skills, I can teach them how to juggle with apples. I also can share my drawing capabilities (pen and watercolor) to draw their favorite place in exchange to reduce costs for graciously hosting me.
