I love travel, reading, learning new languages, and the beach. Also, sunscreen & chocolate, not necessarily in any specific order. Startin gin September 2016 I'll be in Gangwon province , in South Korea, teaching English to elementary-schoolers! During the previous year I was traveling around Latin America, working with chocolate and cacao, and meeting lots of new people. Let's hang out! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend I met in Ecuador recommended that I make an account after I went with her to a few meet-ups around Quito, so here I am!

Interests

Teaching English, learning, making people smile, pronouncing words in Korean correctly... I'm sure I could go on, but I'll just finish with "laying on the beach while eating melted chocolate."

Music, Movies, and Books

I am into almost any music in Spanish, and some rock, pop, rap, hip-hop, French rap, Belgian hip-hop... Books? Anything I can get my hands on... Movies? Anything that makes me feel something too hard. Or that has a funny & happy ending.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've made my own chocolate from bean to bar, with cacao I've sourced myself. I think it's pretty cool, and I'm willing to talk about it with anyone who'll listen.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some mad cooking skills and some great conversation in a variety of languages. Also, usually a lot of chocolate.
