Hello! Hallo! Salut! Sawadee Kaaaa! Xin Chao! Suessadai! Salammalekum! My name is Kate and I am a fun, outgoing and adventurous girl from the States. When I was 15 I spent a year studying abroad in Germany, then again in France while at University. The travel bug hit hard and since then I've been living and teaching Kindergarten and primary in South East Asia and the Middle East for the past 7 years including Thailand, Vietnam Cambodia and Bahrain. I've now just moved to Australia for my Working Holiday Visa. One of my favorite parts of traveling is meeting new amazing people from all over and sharing epic moments together. I probably keep in touch more with travelers I've known for a few days or week trip than my childhood friends from back home. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to meet people, see the places I'm visiting through the eyes of locals/expats (as I'm an expat myself), have new experiences, make friends, be part of a like minded community

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hiked Everest Base Camp then got a helicopter evactuation out on the last day because my porter guide had offered to have sex with me and then was angry and threatening to punch me in the face. I couldn't stand to be around him anymore and all regular flights were canceled--so helicopter it was! 2 bucket list items in one go!
