My name is Erin I'm from Virginia, USA. I graduated from Clemson University in 2014 with a degree in International Trade and Spanish. After graduating I moved to Galicia, Spain for a year to teach English as a second language. Then, I moved to Yasothon, Thailand to teach English to high school students for 6 months. I now live in Xela, Guatemala while I study Social Impact Strategy at University of Pennsylvania.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all kinds of music, mostly alternative and rock. I am also an avid reader and I am currently reading Natchez Burning by Greg Iles and I would definitely recommend it! My favorite type of movies are comedies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I volunteered for a group called Pronino in Honduras to help build a fence around a rehabilitation center for abandoned street children. It was one of the most rewarding but emotional few weeks of my life!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Spanish or English! I would love to learn more about this beautiful country. I think it would be fun to share foods from our respective cultures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a very positive and outgoing person but I am also very respectful of others and my environment. I can share travel stories-the good the bad and the ugly!
