About Me

I am traveling to Asia for the summer. I am currently staying Seoul, Korea, but will soon be going to Chiang Mai, Thailand for a little under two weeks. I love to travel to learn about the different cultures, while experiencing new things. I am a wrestling coach and an international language coach. I can help with English if wanted. I would love to learn some phrases that I would be able to use and practice throughout my daily life in Thailand. I am friendly, helpful, and willing to help around.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing because I believe there is no better way to learn about a country's or city's culture than to be actually immersed with the locals who live in those areas.

Interests

I love to learn about the different cultures, behaviors of people, and about solutions to make a positive impact on the world. Most of all, I love to put myself out there and be open to new experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a passion for R&B and Hip Hop. I generally like all movies, but especially comedy and romance. I don't read books too often, however when I do, I read books about personal development. Just recently I started reading a book "Hot to love".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to city I knew nothing about and decided to sleep in the park with the homeless people to get a feel of the daily struggle they go through. This may not be amazing, however this experience has been very enlightening and made me much more grateful for the simple things I normally take for granted.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach students in the United States as well as students in South Korea through Skype. I would be able to help teach English, real wrestling, and/or how to juggle. I would be willing to learn anything as I am eager to try anything new. I would also love to share my experiences of traveling in Europe and would also welcome anyone to come to Los Angeles so that I can return the favor and show you guys around my home city.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my amazing experiences of travel with my hosts. I would also be able to teach a bit of English and or Korean, while I learn about the native language.
