CURRENT MISSION

Meet fellow travel lovers and meeting amazing people all over the world!

ABOUT ME

My husband and I recently moved back to the States after teaching English in Japan for two years. As soon as I came back, I was ready to travel and see the world again!

PHILOSOPHY

It's important for everyone in their life to be in the minority and to surround yourself with people who disagree with you. Unless you do that, you will never really understand your own life and choices.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We hosted about 15 guests through couchsurfing while we lived in Japan, and we loved meeting people and showing them the places we loved! We're now in a living situation where we can't host people, but we hope to meet other hosts around the world in our travels!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We hosted guests for two years at our apartment in Japan. I loved meeting so many people through Couchsurfing that I wouldn't have met otherwise!

兴趣

I love art, cooking, and learning about other cultures. He loves board games, video games, and wood-burning. We both love classical music, history, movies, and reading.

音乐、电影和书籍

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I have so many stories from living in Japan! Some of my favorites:
-Climbed Mount Fuji! I am incredibly out of shape, but I still managed to fight through altitude sickness and weakness and make it to the top!
-Volunteered in the Fukushima evacuation zone, cleaning up yards and houses. Definitely some of the most meaningful volunteer work I've done.

教，学，和分享

After living in Fukushima for two years, I have a lot of information about the situation there that I want to share with anyone who will listen. I also can speak Japanese, and I'm a decent cook. Also, I work in news so I can give you objective and moderate opinions about the news (surprisingly rare in these times). My husband can woodburn and is an amazing writer. We both love to sing!
