CURRENT MISSION

learning from experiences

ABOUT ME

Wow...so let's see...I come from a large family...I have 3 brothers and 4 sisters...my family is very important to me although I don't feel like I see them a whole lot. I would describe myself as someone who totally loves change...actually someone who lives for change. I'm constantly looking for new experiences and I get extremely bored when life starts to become routine. I left university for a year and lived in Kenya, Africa for 10 months as a volunteer teacher and enjoyed volunteering in many ways in Kenya. I've traveled in Uganda and Tanzania as well. I've backpacked for 6 weeks in China and had a blast. Last summer I backpacked Europe for 6 weeks as well and even stayed with a couchsurfer in Norway. I graduated university with a business degree but I'm not ready to start a career. Right now I'm teaching in S. Korea and recently had the chance to visit Thailand...Incredible! I'm still dreaming about what's going to be next.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience was so great...I stayed in a cabin in the woods with a woman in Norway who was so incredible and trusting. I'll remember the late night talking and telling stories. Recently I met a great couchsurfer in Bangkok. We really had a great time with him and hung out a lot. We will continue to keep in touch.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I feel lucky to have experienced so much at my age...I'll go ahead and say a highlight was a crazy experience I had on the border of Tibet in a small Tibetan town. It was hard getting there but I had a great time experiencing a Tibetan horse festival and getting to eat and spend time with the locals.
