CURRENT MISSION
To enjoy my 20s and stop worrying about the future.
ABOUT ME
Hello!
I'm currently working doing...well...everything! I'm teaching Spanish in a high school, working in an Italian cafe, running Swing Dance classes, translating a book into English from Spanish and I'm about to start volunteering with a local 'free food' network called Incredible Edible.
As you can see from my list of jobs, I love doing a bit of everything, being busy and knowing as many people as possible.
Last year I was working for six months in Mexico teaching English at a university, teaching Swing Dance, and I sung backing vocals in a LatinFunk girl band - I had the best time of my life!
PHILOSOPHY
where there's a will there's a way!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I started my own dance community in Mexico - LindyHopPuebla!
There was no swing dance in the city, and I missed it so much, so I set up a meetup group and it took off! The group is still going strong. In fact, stronger than ever!
Teach, Learn, Share
I teach languages and dance, and love to share information about travelling, about Mexico, England, Europe....
What I Can Share with Hosts
Enthusiasm, conversation, maybe dancing if you want! If you want to practice your English with me, or Spanish, or Portuguese...go ahead!
