Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach a bit of Russian and tons of environmental science.

I have lots of stories and love a good conversation. I also like to cook for people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook for you, I love pets, and I have even been known to clean on special occasions. I also don't mind giving monetary compensation for a place to crash for the night.
