CURRENT MISSION

Understanding vietnam, learning Vietnamese

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from amish country, ohio.
I am teaching in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam. Right now I am living in Can Tho but will move to Soc Trang in January to teach at a college there. I am currently planning a trip through Cambodia and Vietnam for december 2009. Then in the summer of 2010 I will go to China, Laos, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. Anyone interested in joining or have some advice? Please let me know, I would love to hear from you!

PHILOSOPHY

live like the world of petro oil has peaked, because if it hasn't yet, it will. soon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been in Vietnam for about eight months now. I would love to give advice on where to go in the Mekong Delta to anyone who is traveling through these parts. Also, I would love some company!

I had some great experiences coach surfing in America and now I can't wait to explore some couches, Asian style.
