Happily living in Palo Alto, CA after having lived in Washington DC, China, and Southern California. I teach middle school English (students ages 11-14)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm not very active these days and can't host because I live with housemates, but I've enjoyed hosting and meeting up with some couchsurfers in DC in the past. I'm excited to potentially do some surfing soon! I love hearing about others' lives and travels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I dropped my phone out of a biplane 2000 feet up...and then found it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an English language arts teacher, and have also taught English as a second language, so I'm happy to help any English language learners practice! I'm hoping to learn from others about their homes and what they love.
