About Me

I was bitten by the travel bug later on in life but now I can't stop going to new places. I used to work at International Schools in Asia (Tokyo & Shanghai) but I recently left that career to pursue a new endeavor so I am currently in school. I currently live on Long Island in New York and it is very different from living in Asia. I miss living overseas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Ever since I started traveling, meeting new people comes with the territory so this seems like fun. I get the local's perspective and make great connections. I tried WWOOFing last year in Italy and it was wonderful and now I have friends for life. They have invited me back to their farm.

Interests

I enjoy being active, working out, snowboarding, golf, cycling. And of course, traveling when I have the time. I also love reading about financial markets.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Was on 2 US reality TV shows when I lived in Japan.

Teach, Learn, Share

This is good advice.
