I live in San Francisco, in the mission. Before that, I was in the redwood forests of northern california, near Santa Cruz, in a town called Boulder Creek. I share a home with 8 friends and 2 kitties.

I currently work as a high school history teacher - which is why I have the summer off to travel. The whole question of 'how did we get here' is a doozy for me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get an inside scoop and a friendly face in the places I'll go, and to offer the same to people coming through boulder creek!
