ES : Hola, amigo! Español fue mi segunda idioma (después ingles). Lo estudia en la escuela estadounidense hacía cinco años, pero tengo miedo que lo este olvidando porque no practico mucho en este parto de chino.

中文：朋友，你好！我是美国人，但是我自己学习汉语。不好意思，有的时候看懂汉字有的时候看不懂，但是我喜欢说话。我的汉语越来越好，每天进步！

FR : Bonjour, tout le monde. Certainement mon français n'est pas parfait, mais je l'aime beaucoup. Pratiquer est un peu difficile en cette parte du Chine, mais il semble que après l'anglais, le français est la langue étrangère plus populaire, au mois du langues europeans.

EO : Mi lernis la esperanton por partopreni en la 100a UK en la jaro 2015. Mi koniĝis diversajn interesajn homojn pro eo, do mi ĉiam serĉas aliajn samideanojn.

EN : I'm an English teacher (EFL). English is my job, so when I take a vacation to travel, I try to avoid work :p But as a host, I wouldn't mind being an interpreter to help you experience all that ZT has to offer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My Friend Jax once gave a presentation on Couchsurfing in college and had nothing but good things to say. I have always loved to travel, and now that I live independently, I can help others to see the world like I have been doing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dropping everything in America and coming to China was the best split-decision I've ever made. I would like to indefinitely continue this lifestyle of teaching English in a foreign country while trying to learn the local language, or at least the standard.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I never have minded cleaning. In the Boy Scouts, I thus got all of the cleaning jobs (and never learned to cook, haha). Give me the cleaning supplies and point me in the right direction, and I'll scrub until that thing sparkles. Or it can be as simple as sweeping or doing the dishes every day I'm there, whatever would be helpful. After all, my last name means servant.

We could also go out together for a meal on me, or better yet, if you teach me to cook, I'll buy the groceries!
