CURRENT MISSION

Obtain a better grasp of foreign language and having fun while seeing the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from a small town in the Midwest! I went to college at The Ohio State University where my love for languages really began. My first time travelling was on a study abroad experience to Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia. Ever since then, I can't wait for my next trip! Currently, I'm an English Teacher in Galabovo, Bulgaria where I teach 7th through 12 levels! Aside from teaching, I love travelling in general, meeting new people, playing games, learning different languages, and experiencing different cultures! I'm a huge extrovert who loves to talk!

PHILOSOPHY

1. Life is way too short to be angry!
2. Everyone can always teach you something new!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've met plenty of surfers along and i'm interested in surfing, but i've yet to actually do it! Can't wait for my next trip!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have none at the moment aside from staying with friends around the United States and Georgia! I've hosted several friends while I taught in Georgia (country)! However, i'm very much open to new experiences!

Interessen

Overall, I try to be a very active individual; I love simply playing football, basketball, ultimate frisbee, chess, and backgammon even though i'm not the most talented athlete! I love trying new foods and i'm always down for long conversations! If you have a topic, i'm willing to talk about it! Finally, I always am trying to learn a little bit of the language of the places I visit! I'd love to exchange words and phrases in our respective languages!

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Mostly, I listen to pop/hip hop music; however, I'm flexible! I love comedy, inspirational, and foreign films!

Favorite films: 'Pursuit of Happyness', 'Dedemin Insanlari', 'Mediterranea', 'Finding Nemo', and 'Ida'.

Favorite authors: Agatha Christie, Dan Brown, and J.K. Rowling.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Honestly, teaching English in Goergia this past year has been an incredible experience. I didn't expect to be here, but i've come to love it. Georgian is a rather complicated language and the education system is very different from the United States; however, I think that i'm meant to be a teacher!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I'm not the best cook, but I enjoy it! I can also help with English language questions!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I'm an English teacher so if you have any pressing grammatical questions, I'd love to help you out or, simply, if you want a conversation partner, I'd love to chat!
