My boyfriend, Ben and I have been travelling the world together for the past few years, teaching English in Korea and now China. We're nerdier than Whovians at a TARDIS drag race, and love to have adventures and play all kinds of games.

Ben is a music teacher specialising in brass instruments and I'm a kindergarten teacher specialising in make-believe games involving monsters and princesses. We're pretty relaxed, easy-going people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the sharing economy and if I've got the space and someone else needs it, that's a good enough reason for me.

Interests

I review books on my blog, do cross stitch. Ben is a music teacher. We both like art, anything nerdy or geeky, scifi, and technology.

• reading
• scuba diving
• skiing
• reading books

Music, Movies, and Books

I read all kinds of books but prefer scifi, fantasy and litfic. Ben is a big fan of the classics...like Asimov and Philip K Dick.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in South Korea on my own for 3 years, teaching English to high school and middle school kids. While there, I white water rafted, ate insects, hiked 80km in a week (in the rain), and set fire to a pot plant by accident.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English. I love learning languages. I am happy to share the load of chores.

Ben likes teaching people to play new games and instruments. He is also a Boy Scout so he's pretty knowledgeable about wilderness survival stuff and camping.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We have a killer collection of card and board games, some of which we bring with us when we travel.
