Hi! I’m Jay. I am currently a student. I spent last year traveling the world, in the USA, South and East Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. I love meeting new people and I’m a very low-maintenance guest! I’m happy simply to have a floor or couch for the night.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people and I don’t like spending money on temporary housing while I travel!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two years ago, I taught Latin to (primarily Spanish-speaking) 3rd and 4th graders after school for fun.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach anything I know that you don’t know! I know how to make simple paper, read basic Latin, ancient Greek, Spanish, Hebrew, and Arabic, and pogo stick. I’d love to learn to surf, speak any language, or about any spiritual practices. I’m very Catholic and I love to share conversations about anything, but especially about faith. And I love poetry.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a very cheery personality, I love to chat, and I’d be happy to teach any of the things noted in my “Teach, Learn, Share” section. I also love to cook! Though I don’t have much money for nice groceries. I'm happy to write you some poems to leave around :)
