ABOUT ME

I just quit my job in Environmental Construction to travel South America for 4 months solo. I love exploring and trying new activities, so I'd love if you could show me some of your favorite things to do in your area. I'd love to swap travel stories over a beer and practice my Spanish. I am also looking to learn how to dance salsa, so take me to your favorite spot!

I worked as an English teacher for 2.5 years, and would be happy to give some instruction.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travel is more interesting when I get to meet locals! I really want to improve my Spanish and learn more about Colombian, Peruvian, and Bolivian culture while I travel.

Interests

Playing all types of sports, going to see live music, hiking, exploring, and meeting new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After working in Korea for a year and a half, I backpacked through SE Asia for 4 months. In Vietnam, I bought a motorcycle and rode it from Sapa in the North to Ho Chi Minh City in the south over a month. It was definitely the most exciting/terrifying/rewarding month of travel I've had.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a lot of experience teaching English, so I'm happy to help you learn and I am a good cook. Let me know if there's a dish you'd like and I can try to make it happen.
