CURRENT MISSION

to be an awesome French teacher :)

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in Lynchburg, VA, working as an French teacher in a middle school and high school. Last year I lived in Metz, France and used Couchsurfing as a way to travel all over France and Europe and make lots of new friends. It was a great way to gain experience before coming back to the states to teach!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I've been to New Orleans, Louisiana to help with rebuilding projects after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. When I went in 2007, we helped fix up a baseball field and did various yardwork and gardening for New Orleans homes. In 2009 I got to go back, and a group of us worked on tearing down the siding of a house and putting up new siding. It was amazing to see the finished pictures when the house was completed!

教，学，和分享

I can bake a cook a little bit, and I like arts and crafts. I'd love to learn how to knit or sew. I also love learning about languages and culture!
