About Me

I would be happy to show anyone around the San Francisco Bay Area!

Hello, my name is Bryan. I recently finished my Master's degree in Linguistics. My current profession is teaching international students and professionals accent modification. I consider myself outgoing, talkative, and humorous. I have been called "my own best audience". I have only traveled within the U.S.A and Canada. I hope to be able to visit France and Germany soon to be able to practice my years of language learning. I have taken many language courses in many languages. I am most fluent in French and German. I learned French for approximately 7 years and German for 4 years. Also, I have a pet rabbit named Regina. (Update: I did those things and it was great, all thanks to the couchsurfing experience.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to visit France and Germany not as a "tourist". I would like to meet people and live in the environment as naturally as possible. (Update: Accomplished. I hope to do the same for people hoping to visit here.)
