Hi, I'm Hailey! I've just finished a year as an Assistant English Teacher in Iwate Prefecture, and it's my goal to travel everywhere before starting a new job as a Chemistry Teacher in Cameroon in May!

I love studying and speaking French, and I enjoy improv comedy and writing stand-up, hiking, cooking, and talking to people of different cultures.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm looking to meet locals living in all the places I'm visiting so that I can really get to know the cities- an experience that's hard to get in hostels and almost impossible at hotels. I love learning about local hangouts, the do's and don'ts of everyday life, and how people relate to each other in different countries. I'm also hoping I can share some of what I've learned about U.S. and Japanese culture with you!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I finished a 38 km trail race (somehow) involving three mountains and a 600m elevation gain in the last 4km.

I've also travelled 500km (and spent over $200 USD) to perform a 3-minute comedy stand-up show in Tokyo... it might have been a waste of money but hey gotta start somewhere

教，学，和分享

I can teach English, anything you might want to know about organic chemistry (long shot, I know) and how to make bread by yourself. I can also help you run a fundraiser or organize an event, if you're interested.

I'd like to learn French, Japanese, breakdancing or hip hop dancing, and how to make Japanese food at home. And how to surf. But that's a long shot.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

A lot of bad jokes, but hopefully some you will laugh at. Also dancing. Also I will do all your dishes and am a master at cleaning bathrooms and bedrooms.
