I am an American student of Literature and French and am currently living in France. I love to travel and am a huge people person. I love anything to do with nature and animals, and I love to get outside and explore new cities and places.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I have been caving (spelunking) in the Pyrenees Mountains and that was quite fun.
I often Rock Climb in the United States.
I have hiked in three different villages in the Pyrenees.
I have hiked in the mountains of Romania.
I have hiked in Colorado.
I have gone horseback riding in Colorado and in the Pyrenees.
I lived in Romania for a summer and worked with displaced children.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love the concept of passing along what you have learned and sharing what you have. I think humans were made to be communal and I always want to get back to the simplicity of that concept. I meet up with people who want to practice their english and help them better understand the language. I am constantly learning new things simply by living in a different country, and am very grateful to the people that have been so patient with me. I in turn try and be very patient with others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my culture and my language! If you want to practice English, or perhaps French, I would love to speak with you. My hosts can ask me anything about my culture. I would also love to share my travel experiences and hear theirs as well.
