I am new to the Athens area and I'm excited to become a part of this community! I just got back from Brazil where I taught English for a year. Prior to that, I taught English to some loveable and rambunctious Chilean middle and high schoolers!

I've heard great things about Athens, so I'd be up for exploring the town. I'm into anything indie, outdoorsy stuff, and art.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting people from different cultures. Having lived abroad in three countries, I've had some amazing meetups with Couchsurfers. It also seems like a great place to meet up with locals in your area who can show you around.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Machu Piccu and Iguazu falls were amazing, but one of my most memorable moments is planning a semi-elaborate scheme to secretly switch shoes with strangers at a night club in Brazil because the bouncer wouldn't let me in with flip flops....
