I am an artist, art educator and ardent traveler. I believe that authentic travel and engaging in communities can help us to connect with our true selves as citizens of the world. I recently traveled to Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam where I worked with women and children at risk, and met many amazing people from the world, and in local communities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm going on school trips throughout VT, MA, ME and NH and would like to meet local people and get a sense of the communities around schools. I am an artist and art educator.
