About Me

Hey

I am currently an ESL teacher who was living in Suwon, South Korea. I graduated with a degree in Environmental Studies about 4 years ago. I'm currently travelling around after my contract was finished.

I love travelling and meeting new people, I have lived in Hawaii for almost 8 months. First 4 months was my student exchange, I sailed around the Hawaiian isles doing a research project and being crew on the ship for 3 weeks. The 2nd time was to do a thesis on shark finning laws.

I'm super social and love laughing and making other people laugh. I also love food! Spicy food especially! I have made friendships that I still keep in touch with whenever I have traveled for long periods of time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to make more friends all over the globe! :) I love talking and learning and sharing from other people all over. I believe it helps us grow to be better people.

Interests

I have a lot if different interests, some of my fav things to do is dancing. I have done many different types of dance before. I also enjoy cooking quite a bit. I love reading, and I really enjoy playing video games and watching anime.

I also love sharks and like to learn all sorts of neat facts about them. I enjoy listening to a wide variety of music. I also love eating all things sweet!

I own an ecommerce business as well, and like to read up on online marketing and business strategies.
