Native Californian. World traveler. International teacher. I lived and taught in Turkey 5 years but am currently living back in my hometown of Pasadena, CA. I've been back in the US for a year and a half.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I had several friends in Turkey who met each other on Couchsurfing, and now that I am traveling more and more to various cities across the US, it makes sense for me to participate on Couchsurfing too.
