CURRENT MISSION

to learn

ABOUT ME

I grew up in a small town on Long Island, New York with my three older brothers and parents. I studied Education and Mathematics in upstate New York at SUNY Geneseo and finished my degree in Kumasi, Ghana. Ten days later, I packed my things and moved to Thailand as a volunteer in the United States Peace Corps. After 2.5 years in Thailand, I moved to Aruba to teach high school math at the International School.

PHILOSOPHY

"La vita é bella."

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS in Italy was an incredible experience. I felt extremely welcomed into people's homes and hope to return the favor.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been able to meet some wonderful people passing through Chumphon to Koh Tao as well as host a fellow teacher from the States whom contacted Peace Corps directly. After my service, I CS in Italy for 3 weeks. Informally, I walked from village to village in eastern Myanmar staying with locals.
