About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Educate Every Child I can!

ABOUT ME

I'm a school principal who is passionate about kids. I'm in Ningbo, China in the latest stop on this world tour. Talk about a crazy job. My heart is still in Africa but I'm here for now and enjoying it thus far.

And I'm a school administrator who loves meeting new people!

PHILOSOPHY

We strongly believe in the oneness of humanity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We're just trying to be part of the oneness of humanity. You can crash here and we'd love to crash wherever you are.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted a lot but only surfed once. We have backpacked all over the world but haven't had time to travel much the past few years since we joined couchsurfing. We are living vicariously through others!
