Student and human from the United States. I play guitar, do martial arts, like to cook. I recently finished a semester studying in Santiago de Chile, so right now I'm traveling for a short time before going home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking for interesting people to meet and spend time with as I travel. I also want to try to save money as I'm traveling, and Couchsurfing seems like a great place to do that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've come to realize that people find American Buddhists interesting, and I'm one of those. So if that seems interesting to you, I can talk to you about that.

I also love to learn skills from others, so if there's anything you do that you are proud of and good at, share it!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Language skills - I can teach English, Spanish, and Portuguese and I can converse in these languages. I can also teach beginning Arabic.

Food skills - I haven't been cooking for a hugely long time, but I have some very interesting vegetarian and vegan recipes under my belt. Also, I know some regional recipes from my home state and region that hosts might find interesting and/or educational.

Conversation - I really enjoy talking about a variety of topics and getting to know what the human experience is like in other parts of the globe. We humans tend to have more in common than we realize.
