I am an avid traveler (32 countries+) and I am always interested in meeting new people, exploring new cities and taking photos.

I am a teacher with passions that include: photography, people watching, reading, movie watching, nature walking, eating, and learning anything and everything.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I am on CS, because I am looking for a place to crash while I venture across Europe this summer for another long-term visit. Previously, I visited various cities in Europe during a 4 month stay in Denmark through a study abroad program. This time, I am exploring cities within Central and Eastern Europe in preparation for a gap-year.

I seek genuine experiences and enjoy learning about the culture and ways of life in a place, which is what makes CS ideal for me. I am eager to explore additional places, cultures, and to learn from a variety of people.

Музыка, кино и книги

I like listening to all kinds of music ranging from classical to rap, but not limited to techno/electronic and indie bands from all over the world. Due to my interest in psychology and philosophy, I like books such as "Lord of the Flies", "Brave New World", and introductory works of philosophy (such as Sartre, Hume, Kant) to learn about other perspectives. I like romantic comedies, educational films, nature films, and documentaries about nearly anything.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I hope to share my knowledge of a different culture (the Pacific North West, where Seattle is located is a fun and quirky sub-culture). I hope to learn about each European city that I venture to and to share authentic experiences with individuals from the city.

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

I can share photographs from my travels, simple food recipes, and hiking/travel tips that I've learned.

I can also share stories of my life , explain what life in Seattle is like, and learn anything and everything of interest to my hosts.
