I have a degree in English Literature and I am a qualified teacher of English as a foreign language.
I have also worked in the travel industry for years.
I love to travel and have lived in Japan, New Zealand and Australia.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I want to connect with real people, not an impersonal hotelier who is paid to be polite. I would like to make new friends and see what day to day life is like for someone in the country I am visiting.
