High School Teacher based in the East Bay. Amazing how quickly that sedentary lifestyle sneaks up on you!

Formerly... On the move longterm, educator, aspiring storyteller. Business card: High School Teacher, Youth Development Consultant, rumored puppeteer, struggling guitar player.

Love staying active, avoiding mass media, unexpected connections with strangers, laughing with inappropriate vigor, and funky second-hand jewelry.

I AM NOT INTERESTED IN DATING OR HOOKUPS. AT ALL. PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT ME IF THAT IS YOUR OBJECTIVE. I will delete your message without a second thought :)

En movimiento , educadora , cuentacuentos aspiradora. Tarjeta de negocios: Consultora del desarrollo juvenil, titiritera rumoreada, estudiante de la guitarra.

Me encanta ser activa, evitar los medios de comunicación, conexiones imprevistas con desconocidos, reírme con un vigor inapropiado, y la joyería excéntrica de segunda mano

NO ME INTERESA SALIR EN CITAS NI RELACIONES. POR NADA. POR FAVOR NO ME CONTACTES SI ESO SEA TU OBJETIVO. Borraré tu mensaje sin ninguna hesitación :)

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

Meet folks, learn something knew, wander in groups.

I love the idea of having an extended network of friends in any corner of the globe, and I feel grateful to be plugged into the Couchsurfing network. Folks that are willing to open their homes and lives to complete strangers are special souls, and I love meeting warm-hearted people.

NOT looking for a date. Again. I repeat. Not. Looking. For. Love. Of any sort or duration.

Conocer a gente interesante, aprender algo nuevo, deambular acompañada.

NO busco una cita ni relación. Otra vez. Repito. No. Estoy. Buscando. Amor. De cualquier tipo o duración.

Интересы

Pick up volleyball, guessing Wifi passwords, not sleeping in train stations, solving global inequality, racial justice through education.

Voleibol espontáneo, adivinar las contraseñas del Wifi, evitar durmiendo en las estaciones del tren, resolviendo la desigualdad mundial.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Hitchhiking out of the Sahara, being the "diversity" in a Ghanian Coca-Cola Commercial, learning to drive stick shift on a solo 800 km roadtrip across South Africa, be entrusted with the minds and hearts of children.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I think everyone (and every experience) has something to teach us with the right mindset. I would love to share my knowledge of cooking, general fitness, some yoga...

Would love to learn more about yoga and meditation specifically.

I think open conversations can be the most instructive learning tool available, I feel so grateful I'm able to travel to have so many fascinating ones :)
