Creative, friendly, adventurous, compassionate, dynamic and bursting with whimsy, I love to travel, experience art and culture, meet interesting people and to pursue the unique, curious and unknown. I grew up in the "Triangle" area in NC, went to college in Asheville and also studied abroad in France. After college I have had various occupations including teaching English abroad in French Guiana. Let's explore what the locale has to offer: I would love to exchange stories and create a memorable adventure!

Bungee-jumped off of a bridge in South Africa. Took a three-day river trip down the Maroni River, hiked through the Amazon and saw a giant tarantula.

教，学，和分享

I love to learn new skills so am open to anything you are willing to teach! I am also open to share any esoteric knowledge that I have picked up along the way, including: French, poetry writing, acting and improv, facts about various topics relating to the arts and sciences, and lots of deep but fun conversation.
