About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet friends while I'm on my journey teaching English.

ABOUT ME

I'm an out-going friendly person who looks forward to meeting new people and experiencing new things.

I am currently living in Korea teaching English. Prior I lived for three years in Spain teaching English and I enjoyed every minute of it. That is not to say it has not been without its difficulties, but the difficulties I have faced are incomparable to the plethora of amazing experiences I have had.

At University I was a geography major. Geography is all about people and the environment. How people interact with their environment and their relationship with it. This is one of the reasons why I love traveling and meeting new people. You have the opportunity to see how other people live and what their lives are like. It's an enriching experience and one of the best ways to grow as a person.

PHILOSOPHY

Life begins once you leave your comfort zone.

You can never have enough friends, especially friends from around the world

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing to meet new people as I travel to new places whether it be new countries or new cities in my country. Everybody has something to offer and we all have things to learn. Each person in life, whether you know it or not has some affect on who you are. This is multiplied when you spend time with and get to know a person. There is also no better to way to experience a culture than through somebody else's eyes.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is very important to me, I love listening to music and discovering new music. If you're staying with me introduce me to new music!

My favorite book is The Shadow of the Wind.

One of my favorite movies is Mr.Nobody, but really choosing favorite movies is extremely difficult because there's so many I enjoy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm living my life the way I want to

Teach, Learn, Share

Every path is the right path. Everything could have been everything else and it will have just as much meaning.
-Nemo, Mr. Nobody

What I Can Share with Hosts

More like what I can share with surfers, at the moment I can share the small town of Boseong, South Korea. A trip to the famous tea fields a dinner or two and hopefully some good conversations.
