ABOUT ME
I currently live in Seoul, Korea where I teach English conversation to middle school students. Korea has a certain je ne sais quoi about it, which is why I've chosen to live there for 2 years. In my spare time I study Korean and I volunteer with PLUR, an organization in Seoul that helps out the homeless. Also, I'm a strict vegetarian and I love animals.
I first became addicted by the travel bug when I went to Germany at the age of 17, and I still haven't found a cure! I studied one semester in Antigua, Guatemala and I fell in love with the place. I love seeing new places, eating new foods and learning about different cultures. I'm not a big fan of strictly made travel plans.
