About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm currently teaching English at local elementary schools.

ABOUT ME

I'm made of butterflies and rainbows.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a pretty open person and say yes to anything I'm invited to as long as the damage won't be permanent.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I get some time off and travel around Japan some I'm going to be interested in surfing again.

Right now I'm just ready to welcome anyone to a wonderful small town in rural Japan. I'm only a 10 min walk from the train station and there is a loaner bike in town you could borrow. I love travelling and meeting people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I read a lot of classical literature, trashy sci-fi, good sci-fi and trashy fantasy.

I've seen a fair number of good movies, but I have no idea how to classify them.

Same deal with music. I have a bunch of music I like, but I don't want to just list it all and I'm not sure how to break it into categories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I know this says one, but I put three. Whatcha gona do about it?

I jumped out of a plane at 15000 feet.
I surfed on a river in the middle of the jungle in the mountains of Guatemala.
I paid my own way through college in America and graduated in four years.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my knowledge about any of my interests, and would love to learn anything you can teach me.

Countries I’ve Visited

Belize, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua

Countries I’ve Lived In

Honduras, Japan, United States
