I am currently making my way across Europe while petsitting various animals along the way. I have taught in American schools from coast to coast in Los Angeles and Baltimore as well as my hometown of Dearborn, Michigan. In 2017, I left the classroom and my country to pursue a digital nomad lifestyle as a freelance writer. Follow my travels or get in contact with me at https://jauntingjake.wordpress.com/

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a baller on a budget. I have little money, but I want to see the world. Budget travel and a minimalist lifestyle have been passions of mine for awhile now. Couchsurfing is a wonderful way to meet like minded people and, let's be honest, travel on the cheap.
