ABOUT ME

adventurous, kind, easygoing, educated, funny, caring

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let dive. You never no when your time is up so enjoy it while you can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started this

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had 3 friends tell me about it that have hosted or been hosted so I thought I would try it

Interests

scuba diving, teaching English/Spanish, reading, exercising, travelling the 3rd world (and other places) just read "Born to Run" and very excited/interested to run semi barefooted (with rubber glove type things that fit on your feet). Just finished my first dive master job in the Perhentian Islands and looking for a new experience doing the same thing in either western Thailand, Malaysia, or Indonesia. Before being a divemaster I studied diving in Koh Phangan. Before that I taught English in China. In the USA I was a Spanish teacher, I learned the language in the US and by studying abroad.
