About Me

CURRENT MISSION

High Fives for Everyone

ABOUT ME

I am a substitute teacher in the Buffalo Public Schools and going to school for teaching English as a Second Language. I also do a little bread baking.

PHILOSOPHY

Be honest, forgive, and don't take the day too seriously

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am not planning to take any trips soon, so I am eager to host people and share. I travelled last year as a WWOOFer and saw how great it is when someone can help you in an unfamiliar place and want to help travelers in any way that I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had a couple of people stay with me before and it was a lot of fun. I have never surfed, but hopefully will soon.
