ABOUT ME

Relaxed, energized, and fun-loving I delight in exploring and learning about new cultures and people.

I have kissed a camel, held a falcon, and visited 29 of the 50 states in the US.

Starting in September, I will be living in Ankara, Turkey for 9 months and teaching English to College students.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I want to travel the world and understand other cultures. I feel like couch surfing is a much better way of achieving this dream than hopping from hotel to hotel.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

22 day solo trip throughout Eastern Europe.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I have a 120 Hr. TEFL certification, and would LOVE to help my hosts with conversational English.

It would be amazing to learn to cook a traditional dish from every place that I visit.

I hope to be able to share my love for exploration, culture, and making new friends!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I would love to share stories about travel and discussion about cultural norms with my hosts.
