I love traveling and connecting with locals when I do! It's so great to host guests back at home and its comforting to know I can do the same in unfamiliar places when I'm traveling and develop relationships in the process. It is also an awesome way to get to know the local culture better.

I took a gap year last year and traveled to the Dominican Republic, the U.K., Thailand, Myanmar, India, and Israel. I taught English in the Dominican Republic, Thailand, and Myanmar.
