CURRENT MISSION

To get back into some sort of art - music, dancing, drawing, etc. And Greece! =)

ABOUT ME

You can call me Jessie, but you don't have to.

I've been living in Istanbul, Turkey for the past 3 years. After finishing my final year as an undergraduate at Bosphorus University, I decided to stay and work as a primary school English teacher.

PHILOSOPHY

Always remember to listen to, love, and respect others. Never forget to listen to, love, and respect yourself.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've used CS for a host once in Turkey when I was traveling with my friend. CS has mostly been my support and network for meeting new people when moving to a new place and learning about social events within the city.

兴趣

Turkish, Spanish (languages in general, really), Latin American history, reading, poetry, learning photography, salsa dancing, ukulele, fresh food, education, philosophy, going for walks along the shore, and yoga.

The Social Animal by David Brooks

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I guess it was pretty cool being chosen as an extra in the Discovery Channel documentary made to celebrate the bicentennial of the Mexican Revolution of 1810 =)I played one of the Spanish criollas who fled from the revolutionaries to La Alhondiga de Granaditas in Guanajuato.

教，学，和分享

I can teach you a foreigners perspective and understanding of Turkish culture, and an unfailing cure for the hiccups.
