I'm a 30-something flight attendant and online ESL teacher from Minnesota. I love traveling, meeting new people, trying new foods and learning about different cultures. I am easy going and would love to meet fun people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Two reasons:
1. I'm on a budget.
2. I want to know everything about everywhere. Meeting people from around the world and hearing real-life experiences is the best way to learn. I love meeting new people and hearing their stories.
