One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

3 months solo-backpacking and traveling about in Central Europe (Germany, Switzerland, Italy, and France) - it was a powerfully transformative experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I welcome all three.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach what I know, and share what I feel. I also enjoy being creative in the kitchen so I could try to make us something delicious, if not simply edible.

Countries I’ve Visited

England, France, Germany, Italy, Liechtenstein, Switzerland

Countries I’ve Lived In

Germany, Switzerland, United States
