CURRENT MISSION

Travel and learn about the world and all of its amazing inhabitants to my heart's desire. Which just might be forever.

ABOUT ME

I love languages and traveling, and learning about new cultures and ways of life around the world.

I'm currently on a sort of late "gap year". My boyfriend Dan (https://www.couchsurfing.org/people/danbeep/) and I are traveling, usually in extended stays in each country (we just ended our 5-month stay in Chile), one month in France, and then we'll head to Spain for at least 3 months. We both work online, I as an English teacher and Dan as a writer.

PHILOSOPHY

Still working on that one; it changes all the time (but I think maybe that's the way it should be).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In October we're traveling all through Western Europe, staying about two or three days in each city. We'd love to meet some locals to get a real feel for the city and its culture. Can't wait to meet you!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had my account for a few years, but I've been traveling in different ways for the majority of this period.

I had a great experience with a couchsurfer at my place a few years ago, and from this I really learned how unique and amazing the CS community is - connecting like-minded people around the world who just want to meet and learn from new people. I love it!

Music, Movies, and Books

Any music that you feel in your soul. Same goes for any art form. I love any movie or book that really leaves me contemplating the story or, even better, my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Life.

Oh, and, backpacking for 7 days through the back trails of Patagonia as winter approached, needing to be rescued by rangers after a landslide almost killed one in our group. All in order to witness the most beautiful, serene view I've ever seen of a giant glacier stretching across the land. That was pretty amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach: English (I have a TEFL/TESL certificate). I currently work as an English teacher and have 6 years of experience.

Want to learn: any language or culture, also I love to try cooking different cuisines
