ABOUT ME

International school teacher.

Really into meeting new people, traveling, getting into trouble, and eating till I'm grossly lethargic. I do stand-up comedy on the weekends, sometimes weekdays; dabble in photography. Have done a few professional and organized events. Cherish solitude as much as company.

Lastly, I love learning new things. Teach me something!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to meet new people [make friends], share new experiences, and gain a little of the world's wisdom.

Interests

I love art, music, and movies. I spend most of my time reading, making music, writing my book, and drawing.

Music, Movies, and Books

Presently, I'm reading Shantaram. Great book! Music wise, I'm following FKA Twigs, Little Loud remixes, Neon Trees, and Major Lazer.

Love movies!! Shawshank Redemption, Gladiator, The Matrix, Atonement, and Forest Gump are movies I can watch anytime. Open to pretty much anything though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Angkor Wat in Siem Reap, Cambodia was absolutely breathtaking. Also, sunsets near my home during the fall are amazing! I'm so lucky.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach IB English: Lang & Lit, but have also taught the English language. I speak Spanish and Japanese fairly well? I'd be interested in learning more languages or improving present ones with natives [language exchange format--or as friends] :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can contribute groceries, entertainment, a great sense of humor, and a tremendous degree of trustworthiness.
