About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Now on a trip to Florence (May 15-20), Sienna (May 20-23), and Paris.

ABOUT ME

I'm in a period of transition; I lived in Paris for a long time but have recently moved back to the United States, to Atlanta, and am trying to maintain my connection to Europe while living so far away. My experience living abroad has changed me a great deal, and although I will probably still work as a teacher or editor I have been thinking more specifically about working in international education or for an international association.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new here and am interested in meeting people for coffee, as I travel or at home, as a start.

Interests

Literature, travel, tennis, squash, yoga. My favorite poet is Percy Shelley, and I'm now reading The Memoirs of Hadrian which I love.
