Hi, I'm Jeh. I enjoy teaching English conversation online or in the classroom. I'm a traveler of course. I've lived in Indonesian briefly, Thailand over 2 years.
Also, I"ve traveled to India, Laos, Singapore, Costa Rica, and the Philippines.
I"m a decent cook. Thai, sushi, healthy American dishes. Vegan, vegi or meat.
I've lived in California, including the San Francisco Bay area and I lived on an organic farm for 4 years. Also, I lived in the Hawaiian islands for 10 years. My professional life was in the building trades in electrical and solar energy field.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm living a digital nomad life and enjoy meeting and sharing with others Life's too short to miss out on it. I have met so many people on my travels from many different countries. Meeting others can really bring perspective one's own life. Especially, when traveling internationally.
I grew up in the San Francisco Bay area where the social and ethnic diversity is wide. But after living in Thailand, I have come to meet a lot more people from UK, Asia, and Russian countries. One guy cleared landmines in Afghanistan, another a deep sea mariner, a retired writer/publisher from NY city, Monk and refugee from Burma. And the list go's on.

Interests

Traveling/exploring, learning to cook healthy, great cuisines around the globe.
Learning a bit of the new languages while in host countries. Mountain biking, beaches, road trips, motorcycle or other forms of transport. I like shooting pool, have a few drinks. Small group poker parties ( low-stakes 555).
I've done a fare amount if charity work in my previous carrier, and in teaching.
