I like learning, yoga, books, and adventure.

I have been living in Guatemala for the past two years, working to promote health in primary schools. Before I head home for my next job, I am taking a few months to explore South America.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have had the privilege of living in Guatemala and really getting to know it. I want to get to know South America as much as I can, through they eyes of people who really live there. I am excited to meet new people and see new things.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like any folk music.

My favorite tv show is Parks & Recreation. I'll watch just about any movie, so long as it's not too scary.

My favorite books include: anything written by John Irving, A Book of Luminous Things, Zeitoun, poetry by Mary Oliver, The Beautiful and the Damned.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a boat lowered on the Panama Canal.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am excited to learn Portuguese. I know both English and Spanish and would be excited to help people converse in either language.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a yoga teacher and would love to practice with my host.
