Living in China and traveling around Asia

I'm an English teacher in the city of Nanjing (near Shanghai) and I'm traveling through Japan on my winter holiday. Looking to eat, ski and spend as much time outdoors as possible.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach - I love to cook and bake! I can teach you how to make fresh bread, homemade pasta and cheese, or just cook up a good meal to share.

Learn - Trying to learn Chinese. (Also always looking to learn how to cook new foods)

Share - Low budget travel tips, how to start a campfire, portrait photography, family recipes, conversation and stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm happy to help with anything a host needs around the house (or any other tasks they can think of). I'm pretty tidy and I like to wash dishes :)
