Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To meet more of the many interesting people on this earth.
ABOUT ME
I am an English Teacher.
I think that my friends would say I am a soft spoken individual who likes to listen and relax. I am open minded, very flexible, and interested in going new place, eating new food, meeting new people, and experiencing new things.
PHILOSOPHY
"A ship is safe in the harbor, but that is not what they are built for"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I couchsurfed all around Spain during the Summer of 2012.
Interests
I have a passion for literature of all kinds and a desire to work with children and expand their minds through education. I like practicing yoga, playing soccer, blues dance, drink coffee, and I am learning tango dancing.
I like meeting new people who can show me new ways of viewing the world, who can make me rethink what I take for granted

Teach, Learn, Share
