I am currently living and working as an English teacher in Yanggu, South Korea. I decided to make the move from Boston last year because I really wanted to travel and see as much of the world as possible. At first, being an English teacher was just a means to an end - I wanted to be able to travel and still be financially stable - but along the way I discovered that I really enjoy teaching. This will be my 2nd year teaching in Korea, and after I am hoping to continue my traveling adventures. I'm a friendly, outgoing guy who loves learning new things, meeting new people, and having a good time.
Interested in Adventure Sports
Interested in Books & Literature

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm on here to meet new people and to try out what I suspect might be the more adventurous form of having a place to stay when traveling
Music, Movies, and Books
I love most genres of music but I have always been in love with Hip Hop. I also enjoy the blues, classical, indie, rock, soul, funk, and R&B. Being a fan of a nice pounding bass, there's nothing quite like some good EDM as well on occasion. My friends consider me notorious for loving movies which they insist are terrible. Nevertheless, here are a few of my favorites. Independence Day Jurassic Park Nacho Libre
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I'm scared of heights, but one of the first things I did when I came to Korea was go bungee jumping. It was only about 62 meters, nothing like those crazy ones in Dubai and New Zealand but still.
