Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am couchsurfing because I have always wanted to travel and be be able to new people and I would like to have cultural and language exchanges with local people.

"What better way to learn a language than to go there and speak it for the duration of your stay than talking with local people"!!!

I want to experience as much travel as I can and with the couchsurfing and can meet and make friends in that country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing that I have done would have to be that I got a grant from my University to travel to Latvia to Participate in the 7th Conference on contemporary Iron Pour in Latvia to assist my Professor at the Pedvale Open Air Museum in Sabile.
This was my first time travel outside of the United States and it was amazing!!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my culture and the knowledge that I have. I can also bring my energy to learn something new about your country and and your culture. I am eager to learn and be taught the language and about going to all of the many different places. Not just the tourist attractions.

I can share the knowledge of my language and culture. Having a good conversation and getting to know you. Learning about the country and exploring all that the country offers.
