About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet great people from all walks of life, create memorable experiences and live everyday to the fullest!

ABOUT ME

Im an American southern girl who loves to travel and experience all the wonderful opportunities the world has to offer. I lived in Seoul, South Korea and Rybnik, Poland teaching ESL. I truly love teaching and I feel blessed that I have found my calling!

I'm quite a petite person (152cm to be exact), but I have a big heart and personality. My mom always said good things come in small packages...

I want to be able to grow old one day and look back at all of the amazing memories that I have been fortunate enough to have! Life is a blessing and I fully intend to indulge (and occasionally overindulge)!

I"m studying German now and I can't wait to move back to Europe!

PHILOSOPHY

Live everyday like it's your last! I live and I learn. I make mistakes but I try to never repeat them. I believe in giving and loving because things are always returned to you tenfold.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately, I'm unable to host in China as much as I would like but I love meeting new people and showing them parts of the culture where I live.

I want to stay with people in their own environment and learn about the fantastic places of the world from those who know them best.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed throughout Europe this summer and it was an amazing experience.

One of the coolest things I did was swim in the Danube in Vienna!

Interests

I love great conversation, dancing, good food/drinks, smiling and laughing a lot, because life shouldn't be taken too seriously.

Oh and of course, TRAVELING!!!
