I am a person, of human extraction.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's been a while since I've been on here, and I must confess I've not been that active in hosting people over Couchsurfing, as I've rarely lived in a place conducive to it. However, I would like to do some traveling soon, and hope I can find some cool people to stay with. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lots of stuff. Last time I wrote too much and all my data has been lost (I guess that's fate giving me a kick to unseat me from that gigantic rocking horse I'm still riding instead of the real thing). Anyway, brevity is the soul of wit. Or something.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach: Yoga 100, Why Poetry Is Awesome 200, Musical Appreciation Despite Ignorance 101, and Languor and Lassitude 102.

I can also teach judo, English, Spanish, grammar, literary criticism, composition, fiction writing, basketball, swimming, musing, daydreaming, woolgathering, rash impetuosity, and occasionally success.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook, I can chat with you in English if you want to improve your English (or Spanish, if you'd prefer we speak Spanish!), I can give English lessons (I'm a trained teacher with loads of experience), I'd be happy to chip in around the house...

Countries I’ve Visited

France, Guatemala, Italy, Portugal

Countries I’ve Lived In

Japan, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Spain, United Kingdom, United States
