I am a traveling Art Educator who is currently living in Daegu, South Korea. Aside from teaching Art I am also an artist who works with a variety of media. In my leisure time I train in Judo (and when I go home to New York for holidays I train in Krav Maga). I love hearing about others' experiences- whether it includes traveling, passions, hobbies, family, etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to get the most out of my traveling experiences by meeting new people and learning about their cultures!

Interests

Krav Maga, Judo, creating and designing, snowboarding, windsurfing, hiking, reading, cooking, learning new languages, and making friends around the world! I am also an artist who loves to work with all types of media!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Diving with Great White sharks in South Africa, went mountain biking down the "deadliest road in the world" (Bolivia), paraglided through the swiss Alps, trekked into the Sahara desert on a camel.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn everything that you have to share and in exchange I have skills and experiences from other places that I would love to share with you too!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach and help practice English, Spanish, and some Arabic as well as help out with anything around the house and just about anything Arts related :)
