11 years as a high school teacher. Bachelors in Psych, Masters in Education administration, and now PhD in psych. Not to be a therapist, so no I will not analyze you. I want to teach at the Uni level and continue doing research to help the adolescent into emerging adulthood population develop in the healthiest, happiest, most authentic way. Just came back from living abroad and happily settled in Wilmington! Fellow traveler's unite!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet travelers. I've been nurturing my travel spirit for only about 5 years now (finally), and I want to continue learning more about all the perspectives out there about life, living, family, work, love, education, etc. Oh, I also eventually want to see more of the world (when I get the money), so I'm hoping to give now so I can get later.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Left my comfortable life and all my possessions in the US to live in another country and pursue my dream of getting my PhD.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes. Ok. I agree with these three things. I'm not sure how you want me to respond here. This isn't really a question or a prompt. More just a list of three words.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I know a great card game. No magic tricks, unfortunately. I'm a great veg cook, trust me.
