CURRENT MISSION Being the best English teacher challenging my students intellectually and linguistically, while trying to learn about who they are as a person. ABOUT ME I love learning, teaching, exploring, and living in new places. My two favorite foods are spinach and ice cream (not together and no, I've never had spinach ice cream). PHILOSOPHY We feel tension between who we were born to be and who we aspire to become. With the daily choices we choose who we will become. I am choosing to love through the imperfection I am and the flaws I see.

Warum ich auf Couchsurfing bin
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Love meeting new people! I've couchsurfed a couple times and had no idea that spending time with someone who starts as a complete stranger could turn into such wonderful time spent with a new friend! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE The first time I surfed it was with three friends in Toronto. Nick, our wonderful host, blew up an air mattress (without a pump!)
Musik, Filme und Bücher
Books: I love to read, and my taste is always changing. I enjoy creative nonfiction (Malcolm Gladwell, Leonard Mlodinow), and worthwhile classics or contemporary literature. Music: I like listening to the music my friends make and other little-known music. Sufjan Stevens, JJ Heller, Derek Webb, Anathallo are a few of the more well-known artists I like. Movies: I'm usually not impressed though I do love "Amazing Grace" (about fighting to abolish the slave trade in England). A good documentary is more up my alley.
Eine tolle Sache, die ich getan habe
Living in an orphanage in Mexico for a month when I was 12 years old and making friends with the orphans. This started my love of travel and the Hispanic culture and language.
Lehren, Lernen, Teilen
I know a lot about plants- what ones are tasty to eat in the woods- what seeds sprout well- and recognizing random plants. I am also very into art and pen-ink drawings. Recently, I've developed a fascination with sustainable and community-focused living. I want to learn what people live their lives for.
Was ich mit Hosts teilen kann
I can teach you how to make homemade pasta, cinnamon rolls, or vegan food. If you're learning Spanish, desiring to diagnose your dying houseplant, trying to train your dog, or working on an art project I'd be glad to help in those areas too.
