About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Eat breakfast in as many countries as possible.

ABOUT ME

I'm currently an English teacher at a public middle school in Gwangju, South Korea. I love traveling and gaining new experiences. I'm always down for a good time.

PHILOSOPHY

The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm going to start hosting for the first time. Then when I leave Korea in August I will use couchsurfing for my long travel plans.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed on a couple people's couches in China and they were great experiences!

Interests

I have a huge passion for traveling. It is mostly the reason why I currently live in South Korea. I also play competitive Ultimate Frisbee on as many weekends as I can. I'm the captain of my local team. Other times I like to go out for food and drinks with friends. Or in my downtime I read, watch movies, watch sports, or get too involved with a puzzle.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all sorts of movies. Film studies was even one of my majors in university. I watch a couple new movies a week at least.

I mostly read non-fiction books, and sometimes fiction books if they're widely recommended.

I'm not a fan of angry music or modern country music, but I like just about everything else.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Exploring Angkor Wat in Cambodia, motor biking through Taroko Gorge in Taiwan, swimming with whale sharks in the Philippines, and hiking on the Great Wall of China are some of my travel highlights.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belize, Cambodia, Cayman Islands, China, Germany, Honduras, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand

Countries I’ve Lived In

China, South Korea, United States
