Hi, my name is Teddy and I am a 29 year old Primary School teacher currently living in Arrifana, Aljezur, Portugal.

I thrive on meeting new people every day, meeting their friends and sharing knowledge and experiences. I am friendly and easy going, and - although budget conscious - always looking for a good time and new experiences.

A favourite travel book of mine is 'The Art of Travel' by Alain De Botton, and something I am really looking forward to is sharing my place with another traveller and encouraging each other to experience places from a new perspective.

I look forward to meeting other Couchsurfers and sharing what I have to offer.

PHILOSOPHY

At this stage in my life I'm trying to see the world while I'm young. While doing this I'm trying to discover what it is that I can do to make a difference to education, whether it be as a teacher or academic.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I have been to different CS meetings in different cities: treks in Cordoba, pizza and beers in Argentina and frisbee in Buenos Aires! I CS'ed my way across the whole of Venezuela and it was definitely the best way of doing it.

I keep an eye on the group pages and contribute where I can.

I have surfed with several amazing hosts across South America, meeting their friends and families has been one of the best parts of my travel experience so far. Here is to many more!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

An amazing thing I have done is spent the last 7 years working with children in England and Australia. Every day is different and more hilarious and memorable than the last.

教，学，和分享

I can share what it means to me to be an educator and teach others the importance of education in our communities.

I would like to learn more about permaculture and political differences between our countries.

Beautiful beaches in the Algarve, some time around the small farm house that I am living in with a colleague from work, Latin America tips, wine and good times!
