About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet good people, eat great food, and travel to beautiful countries.

I live in a smaller city in the gateway to Northern Thailand. I teach grade 6 science, art, and English at an elementary school.

ABOUT ME

I'm a really easy going, friendly person who likes to make others feel comfortable and welcome. I like to think that I'm pretty funny and I appreciate someone with a good humour. I also love discussing film, television, books, and current events.
I really love history!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm constantly astounded by how amazing the world and the people in it are and I live for the enjoyment of experiencing all of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I tend to travel alone, but I love to meet new people and make new friends. I'm not very interested in tourist spots and like to get advice from people who live in a place. I want to see the things that make people love where they live!

Interests

I love culture and history. I find history fascinating. I'm a big fan of food. I like most foods and I'll try anything at least once.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungee jumping was pretty big for me considering I'm terrified of heights!
But the biggest thing was originally getting on a plane and moving to Korea in 2013. It led me on a very exciting new path!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about Canadian history and culture and I would love to learn about your country's history and culture, too! I love learning about history and culture, and I like teaching people about history in fun and interesting ways.
I also love food, whether it's making or eating it. I love to cook and bake and I enjoy bonding with others through the experience food gives.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook and bake! I can cook you dinner or bake you cookies! I can even teach you how to cook something, or be your helper in the kitchen.
I can try my best to make you laugh, or just be someone who listens to you talk.
