I'm currently in Denver, Colorado for a computer science teacher workshop and loving it!
I am from North Carolina in the good ol' southern USA and would love to show you some southern hospitality :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Budget is tight and I want real connections wherever I go! I want to see and do as much as possible and CS is budget-friendly, unique experience.

Interests

Obviously traveling! I will try any food or activity at least once. I also love stories and will listen to a great story-teller for hours and hours.
I always love a new adventure and trying new things! It could be as small as trying a new dish to climbing a mountain to leads to a spectacular view. I love hearing and participating with what people love so please share with me :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Coming from southern USA, my favorite music is country, but I do like pop and dance music. I am also really enjoying Spanish music as well as dancing (very horribly)!
I am addicted to Netflix, especially all comedy series that are released. My absolute favorites are The Office, Psych, and Modern Family and I'll be happy to sit around all day shooting off quotes from each show.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to Toledo, Spain! It has been a great experience to get out of my American comfort zone and experience a whole new world. I have certainly learned more about the true art of teaching when there is a language barrier, but we still manage!
Beyond that, I also traveled to Dubai for an education conference that blew my mind. The city itself was magnificent, but the best part about it was the great people I met from all around the world and different walks of life. As an educator and a lifelong learner, I want to meet as many people as I can and see their views based on where they came from and what they have experienced.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn as much as I can from locals about how and why they do things. I will be happy to share silly traditions and sayings from Southern American culture as well! I can teach you a proper "How y'all doin'" as well as make some classic sweet tea to enjoy on a hot summer's day :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I want to share in any passions you have or anything that excites you. I feed off of people's personalities and I love being around happy people. Also, if ingredients suffice, I'll be happy to cook any Paula-Deen certified, heart-clogging southern meals :)
