After my first trip abroad I fell in love with travel. I decided to move abroad to gain a deeper understanding of a new country. I have been living and working in Guangzhou China for the last two years. Just finished my contract teaching English and am about to hit the road for a while.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've heard nothing but great reviews about the Couchsurfing community. All my friends who have used Couchsurfing have spoken about the kindness and generosity of their hosts. When I revealed my plans to take a long solo trip, many people I insisted I join. I think it is a great way to meet new people and learn about their culture and way of life. I look forward to meeting like minded people and hearing about their travel and life experiences. Once I am reestablished in a new city, I hope to be able to return the favor by hosting other travelers.

音乐、电影和书籍

I can most often be found with a cup of coffee in one hand and a book in the other. I will read pretty much anything I can get my hands on. Favorites are classic literature, old Russian authors, and travel writing. Love non-fiction as well. I have a pretty eclectic taste in music, and am always looking for new bands to listen to. Tend to watch quirky, cult movie, type movies, but can appreciate anything with a good plot and good dialogue.

教，学，和分享

I have recently received paychecks for teaching both English and rock climbing. Although I’m not great at either, I could teach you the basics.
