Hello.. My name is Megan. I recently graduated with my master's and decided to seek a transformational experience instead of applying for jobs. My ultimate career goal is to become a college professor and as I await to hear from PhD programs, I am teaching English in Colombia and exploring and learning about the country and continent of South America. I have lived in many different cities in the US in Virginia, North Carolina, Indiana, and Missouri and love connecting with others and learning through their experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I travel through the country of Colombia as a budget traveler I am seeking opportunities to engage with locals and to learn their ways of living. In addition to cheap accommodations, I am seeking opportunities to challenge my current knowledge base and to do things I haven't previously done.
