I’m originally from the U.S. and I’m an English teacher who’s on the move! I’ve been away from home for 13 months now and I’m still counting. The world has got my attention and now I’m hooked on seeing it all. I’ve learned that its the people you meet along the way that really shape an experience. So here I am, hoping to meet one more lovely person!
