I live in Mozambique for my Peace Corps service. I am a biology teacher to secondary students there. However, I am a zoologist at heart and pretty nerdy when it comes to science and animals. I'm also learning eMakhuwa in my community.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to preserve the world we live in. There is also only one and there is so much life we have not even learned about that is being destroyed. If you destroy the world and nature, you are killing a part of yourself as there is a part of everything in everyone.

Make the world a better place!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to meet new people and talk about anything to help me learn about their culture and their life. There is so much we can learn from each other and I hope through couchsurfing I can do just that.
