About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Teaching English in South Korea and traveling as much as possible with my husband Aaron!

ABOUT ME

I am easy-going and friendly, and I love to meet new people. I am very active and like to do new things, and to keep a positive outlook on life.

PHILOSOPHY

I see this life as an opportunity to learn how to be a better person, to live in the moment, to be happy and low-stress, to find the divine in every day and in myself, to know that I'm going to die one day and I want to live a lot before then, to love, to limit any negative impact I may have on the earth and the people around me, to live comfortably with as little money as possible, to share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

my favorite band is Phish :) Also Grateful Dead.
I love fiction, including historical fiction, classical literature, travel writing, anything set in India.
Lately I watch mostly comedies, but I also like other more indie/artistic movies. I like learning about other countries and watching movies set in India, Korea, etc!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At age 41, I left my former life, quit my career in social work, and moved to South Korea to try something new :) I am inspired to live life to the fullest, and to do it now!

Teach, Learn, Share

Climbing, backpacking, yoga, meditation, sewing, cooking...

I want to learn other languages, about other cultures, how to cook new food...
