I'm a passionate high school teacher who thoroughly enjoys her job. Teaching positions in Taiwan have been very highly sought after, usually when they have 1 permanent position opening up, there would be 100-200 licensed teachers applying. I'm very happy where I am now and find my job very challening yet rewarding. Seeing my students' faces lit up when theor learning interest is aroused is priceless!
I love traveling. I usually travel solo. It'd be a wonderful thing if I could connect with interesting, open-minded, friendly locals during my visit. I have summer vacations around July & August, winter vacation end of January and Feb. Those are the times I usually find myself somewhere overseas. I'd love to meet you!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I'd like to try out this idea -- "Stay with locals, not hotels" -- when I travel. Meeting people from around the world as I host them, is a great way to broaden my horizons. And I love hearing people's stories! I look forward to trading cool stories with you. :)
I love playing music too, and seeing standup and improv shows. So if you're down to do those with me, that'd be great too!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I'm a high school English teacher who teaches content that covers a diverse range of topics: stereotypes, plastic surgery, biodiversity, short stories, Shakespeare, black holes, DBCP and its toll on farm workers, etc. I love keeping educating myself on different fields. And I admire like-minded people. But I don't like bossy and arrogant people who think they know everything, and are always trying to "correct" other people.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Materials:
Taiwanese pineapple cakes, wife cakes, etc.
