CURRENT MISSION

To meet new people and explore more, whether locally or internationally.

ABOUT ME

I'm a director of an educational nonprofit focused on early education. One of our schools is a Spanish immersion school. I like to dance, read, write, and spend time with friends.

PHILOSOPHY

"Risk more than others think is safe. Care more than others think is wise. Dream more than others think is practical. Expect more than others think is possible."

"I could not, at any age, be content to take my place by the fireside and simply look on. Life was meant to be lived. Curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life." --Eleanor Roosevelt

¨It´s the journey that counts, not the destination.¨

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am still a CS novice. I was referred here by a best friend and a complete stranger who also have wanderlust. I can lend a couch or meet up to show you around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed once in Alicante, Spain and it was an excellent experience. Now I'm hooked!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Accepting my job in China and moving there without knowing the language or anyone else was an adventure.

I can teach Spanish, English and a little Italian. I was a middle-school English teacher for three years and lived in Madrid, Spain for a year. I can also teach salsa, merengue, and bachata if you want to dance.
