CURRENT MISSION

Living, learning, and loving my life!

ABOUT ME

I am a 3rd grade teacher living in beautiful Western Washington!

I spent the 2010-2011 school year in Cadiz, Spain as an English teacher in an elementary school. One of my new favorite hobbies is meeting people and hearing their life story- everyone has one! I am friendly, clean, honest, polite, and flexible.

PHILOSOPHY

Learning is a lifelong process. I try my best to live, learn, and love the best that I possibly can. I also feel that little acts of kindness can make a huge difference!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am not able to provide a couch for people at this time, but I am more than happy to meet up for coffee or a drink!

I am about to go to Costa Rica and really looking forward to indulging my travel bug! :)

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I have volunteered several times at an orphanage in Mexico. I have seen first-hand how a child can have few belongings, no parents, and an unpredictable future, and STILL have happiness. This encourages me in my life daily to live well and love others. I have been changed by my time spent at this orphanage, and I feel privileged to have the opportunity to continue traveling and learning these huge life lessons.

教，学，和分享

I find that the more I learn, the less I truly know. But that makes me just want to learn more!

But really, I do know English, Spanish, all about American culture, and the education system in the United States. I want to learn to speak Italian and become more fluent in Spanish, learn how to cook ALL kinds of foods from all cultures, and to make friends around the globe.
