Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great community to be part of full of open minded and adventurous people.

Trying to host as much if not more than I surf.

Interests

Don't ask me about working out because I'll talk your ear off.

Trying to get back into tennis and I hit a good ball.

Learning salsa and bachata now but let's see if I stick to it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Go on a road trip to Uluru in central Australia in late 2015. It took 56 hrs of driving in total but it was worth it for the views!

Travelling solo for the first time in 2015 at the age of 23 through South-East Asia. I had no idea what to expect but it was an eye opening experience and I've been trying to travel as much as I can since.

Recently completed (depending on what defines 'visiting a country') 30 before 30; 30 countries before you turn 30!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a Trinity College London, CertTESOL qualified EFL teacher. I haven't taught English in a while but I think I have the right mindset to help people with their language if they ask me.

I teach AP Macroeconomics in my current job. I have reasoned opinions on the topic but a lot of it is dry and theoretical and not applicable to political discussions.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Can promise to be myself and be as respectful and open minded as I can.
