About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go places, meet the people, drink the beer, safe travels.

ABOUT ME

27 year old female from west Texas.

I spent 1 and 1/2 years living and teaching English in Prague, Czech Republic. I now live in Buenos Aires. I love teaching and it's a great way to travel and meet people from all over the world.

I love music, movies, books, travel, riding horses and motorcycles, spray paint, and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Never stop learning, and safe travels.

I don't have a couch to offer, but if anyone is visiting the city or passing through I'd be happy to meet up and show them around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Done a little surfing, done a little hosting. Done quite a bit of meeting up with people to give them a more insider-guide to the city. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all three in a wiiide variety of generas. Music and movies are pretty much one of my favorite things to talk about.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hard to pick one! Summer of 2011 I went on a road trip with a group of expats living in Prague to the Balkans. Serbia, Macedonia, Albania, Montenegro, and Bosnia. The people, food, and weather were all wonderful. At one point we were at a rock concert in Bosnia, drinking beer, and playing on see-saws. It doesn't get much better than that in my opinion.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have many skills learned from my time as an art student. I know how to use tools in a wood shop, weld and cut metal, paint, draw, and do photography and printmaking. I'm good with digital art methods as well which comes in very useful with travel-photography.

I'm also a decent pool player and wouldn't mind sharing tips and playing a few games.
