ABOUT ME

Update, July 2018: Currently in Montenegro after a long vacation. Heading home tomorrow, but we’ll have a long layover in Vienna. Hoping to find a host.

Update, June 2015: my Russian adventure is finished. I'm now back home in Minnesota.

Update: Currently teaching English in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

I am currently working on selling most of my possessions so I can travel more easily. I will be getting a TEFL certificate soon and I will be travelling around teaching English. My first stop will be Saint Petersburg, Russia.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a week in Saint Petersburg at the end of April. It's an amazing city. So much history and great architecture. (Edit: And now I live in Piter and work as an English teacher.)
I was once detained in the Moscow airport because they thought the jar of jam my friend's mother had given me was a bomb.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hmm...well, I'm an English teacher; I'm very good with computers; I'm studying Russian; I remodelled my own house; I'm a good cook.
Anything really. I'm one of those people who just gives it a try if I don't know how to do something, and if I fail my first try, I study the subject until I know how!
