Originally from the Washington DC area, I teach in a Spanish-English immersion program in the Bay Area of California. On breaks from school I love to travel. Some of my favorite parts of traveling are learning new languages, hiking/being in nature, and learning what a good life means to different people and cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with people I'd never meet otherwise and get beyond superficial interactions, and find fun events!
