Creative at heart, believes in humankindness, can be found with either my fiancé/cats and/or cooking up something new.

I am an athletics teacher, performer, artist, and international volunteer. For over 8 years I taught Parkour, Aerial Acrobatics, and Calisthenics professionally, while fire performing, and occasionally babysitting and tutoring kids for mathematics, art, and various athletic activities. I enjoy consistently training and learning new skills, both physically and mentally, and I have a particular fascination with linking all skills and hobbies together to form new developments. This could be anything from mixing parkour with archery, or using video games and animal studies to help with construction projects. I believe that virtually every skill set and passion can be transferable, and I love to push the limits on how many varieties of developments we can form with this philosophy. Now I'm pursuing a life of travel, learning from the world while offering assistance wherever I can. Usually I travel through HelpxChange, though I since being introduced to CS I've loved my experiences in these communities, and these have honestly led to some of the most amazing memories in my adventures! **My Message To Hosts:** I understand that welcoming strangers into your home requires A Lot of trust and communication and I am so incredibly grateful for everyone who has agreed to accommodate me so far! That being said I would like to make my intentions and priorities known. Two of my greatest core values are the balance of efforts, and most of all, the Respect For Boundaries. I feel like the trickiest part of this application is working with the fact that everyone has different priorities, ideals, boundaries, and concerns, all for very good reasons. So I would like to adapt myself to respect the preferences of my hosts as best as I can. (while still maintaining my own values and boundaries of course) To any Women/AFAB hosts or surfers who I may meet here: I understand that meeting a random male such as myself could be a very risky decision to make, especially allowing us into your home with minimal prior introduction, and I am so sorry that this is even a concern to begin with. While I do know of many situations where meeting through applications such as this have actually led to many successful and genuinely respectable relationships, Please Know that this is NOT My Priority or intention At All. I am here to travel, to learn, to offer help as requested, and to form real trusted connections. I am so honored to now have formed many genuine friendships around the world who we can actually trust and support each other as needed, and I do not ever want to do anything to disrupt that. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions for me at all, and I absolutely understand if anyone feels the need to apply extra precautionary boundaries upon early meetings. I want people to feel the comfort of a safe space, so I am happy to make additional adjustments if they can help! ☺️

CURRENT MISSION See the world, live the world, enjoy life!! ABOUT ME I am a down to earth lady born in Jamaica but raised in California, USA. I'm very laid back and natural. Enjoy a bit of peace and quiet but also like a dose of madness every now and then :) PHILOSOPHY To be happy don't do whatever you like, like whatever you do!!

Not doing much travelling these days as I am a homeschooling mama. I have a background in higher education and legal work. I love travelling and mingling with people. I travel to visit friends and family or to checkout cool new areas. I come from a family that is both ethnically and religiously diverse. I have also lived in places with extremely different demographics. I was born in the big city of Los Angeles, moved to a rural area when I was still in grade school, went to college in a suburban town in the inland empire. I have also travelled for work in a couple of my previous jobs. It is crazy how different people are around the United States, even people within California! California should really be about 4 states in my opinion - LOL! When I was teaching, I taught a variety of humanities classes, my favorite of which was a culture and diversity class at a private college. Right now, I live in a rural area and maintain a slower paced life with my family and animals. These days, I may take vacations once a year, but we have a lot going on here on the farm to leave. Not hosting at the moment either.

I am a United States, California native with an artistic soul and an engineering mind. I worked as a programmer for several years and have lately been teaching programming to kids! I am an exceptionally friendly, positive and athletic person. In my free time I am also a singer-songwriter, musician, and multi-instrumentalist, so I can share my love of music with you (singing, violin, piano, guitar...) My latest artistic endeavors have included performing with an improv troupe, figure skating, and playing the violin. I really enjoy new artistic pursuits, especially when I can share them with those around me (cooking new dishes is my newest passion!)

I absolutely love travelling and exploring new places and new restaurants. I enjoy going out under the moon more than I do during the day. Would always be up for conversations and making new friends :)

Hi! I'm Jordan from California, USA. I enjoy traveling to experience new cultures, meet interesting people, and explore places beyond the typical tourist attractions. My faith is an important part of my life, and I value kindness, respect, and genuine connections. I'm easygoing, clean, and appreciative of anyone who opens their home to travelers. I enjoy good conversations, trying local food, hiking, walking around cities, and learning about different ways of life. I believe travel is about the people you meet as much as the places you visit. Looking forward to sharing stories, making new friends, and creating great memories along the way.

Hi everyone! I’m Olga, 20 y.o. Kinda geek, love video games, anime, mangas and books. Love to travel and talk about everything)
