I graduated from Middlebury College in the US in 2018 and have spent my first few months since then escaping Trump as an entrepreneur & English teacher on a Fulbright living abroad in the Czech Republic. I’m eternally outgoing and forever on a mission to cross things off my bucket list(s).

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

All of my best traveling memories & experiences have involved interesting people that I met along the way who pointed me in the right direction. I want to repay the extreme generosity people in this world have shown me and continue broadening my horizons, all while balling on a budget.

Algo increíble que he hecho

appeared in a Dashen beer commercial in Ethiopia after not washing my hair for a month, survived a tear gas-water canon-rubber bullet riot in Istanbul, assisted in the removal of a cancerous colon tumor in Chile, worked as a glacier guide on the Mendenhall Glacier in Alaska, scuba diving at Bay of Pigs in Cuba, sky diving in Utah...the list goes on!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can speak some Spanish (and a few words in Czech) and tell you about what it's like to grow up in Appalachia. I can teach you how to wire wrap jewelry, how to belly dance, & how to make a great cocktail. I love swapping stories and cooking meals with people.
I'd love to learn how to play the guitar!
