I am a 27 year-old English teacher who wants to experience as many cultures and environments as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to experience new cultures and environments as authentically as possible, and I hope to engage locals with the same degree of authenticity.

Interests

My interests are quite wide-ranging, as expressed in the listing below. I am (almost) always willing to try/experience new things.

Music, Movies, and Books

There are very few genres I dislike. I read a great deal of T.S. Eliot, and I quite like 19th century English poetry. Please feel free to share recommendations!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been proud to work as a teacher in a variety of unique environments. Teaching has allowed me to “broaden my horizons,” and engage with individuals from many different backgrounds.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know quite a few random facts which I would be happy to share. I am a bit slow with learning languages, and would be thrilled to learn whatever I can.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can be a quiet houseguest, a traveling companion, a listening ear, etc. I am more than happy to engage in conversation, or quietly mind my own business. I can also proofread/edit your travel blogs, websites, or other writings.
