I’ve been fortunate enough to have travelled and lived in many beautiful countries. I studied in Costa Rica and Spain in college. Then after I graduated, I worked as a Peace Corps volunteer in Morocco for two years and as an Assistant Language Teacher in Japan for three years through the JET Programme. I spent the last year backpacking around Australia and now I’m in New Zealand on a working holiday visa. Upon leaving a country, I always get asked what I’ll miss most about a certain place. Besides the food (I’m a huge foodie), I always miss the people the most! Absolutely there are amazing places to visit (Casablanca, Mt. Fuji, etc.) or things to do (hike, scuba dive, crash a local wedding), but it’s the people I’ve met along the way that have made the places so much more memorable. :)

Почему я на Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing was never something I seriously considered doing until I went to Australia. By chance I made friends with someone who ran a Couchsurfer's BBQ twice a month. I went to every single one and got to know the Couchsurfer's community. I loved how friendly and generous everyone was! Since I was new to Australia, I had a ton of questions, and everyone I met was always more than happy to give plenty of advice. So, I'm on Couchsurfing to continue to meet new and interesting people who I can learn from and, hopefully, I can teach some things too as well.
Музыка, кино и книги
Music- I love pop music, especially Katy Perry and Taylor Swift. Movies- I LOVE movies. I've seen so many and I generally liked most. If forced to choose, I'd say may favourites are The Birdcage (1996 version) and the live-action Beauty & the Beast movie with Emma Watson. Books- Hmm, I don't know that I have a specific favourite book. But my favourite genre is mysteries and thrillers.
Одно удивительное, что я сделал
Scuba dived and swam with sharks on the Great Barrier Reef!
Учить, учиться, делиться
Teach- I can share any knowledge I possess! I guess my speciality is languages, so if you'd like help with English, Spanish, Arabic or elementary Japanese, I can help you there Learn- Any info/opinion you have on the city/country I'm staying in, especially current affairs and travel info, I'd love to hear it! Share- Friendship, stories, advice on getting an adventurous hair color and holiday cheers!
Что я могу предложить хостам
With the holidays coming up, I can make a mean Eggnog, a traditional American Christmas drink. For the more current affairs and politics minded, I readily keep up-to-date on American news. So if you're interested in hearing the thoughts and opinions on the shenanigans of the Trump presidency from an American backpacker, I'm your girl.
