I absolutely LOVE to travel and meet new people. Learning about other people's cultures is also one of my passions. I learn something new every day. I currently live near Moscow, Russia where I'm teaching English as a foreign language. Getting to help my students reach fluency is the best feeling in the world. In my free time, I like to explore many places not only in Moscow but in other surrounding towns and villages. There's always something new to discover. I also love having discussions with other people about current events. Overall, I'm a very friendly and outgoing person who loves to have an adventure. I can't wait to meet you all :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've travelled to Alaska on my own and even crossed the Artic Circle. It was my first time seeing snow, and it was indeed a beautiful experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a teacher, I know how important it is to share what I know with others. I also learn from other people as well as I am very open-minded about new and different ideas. I believe that connection is all about sharing life perspectives and experiences. Not only can I teach English and Spanish, but I can also share my favorite cooking recipes with others and can give great information on what life is like where I'm from.
