About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Teaching in Korea, and travelling around the country and the region as I am able. :)

ABOUT ME

I'm a writer and traveller currently working as an English teacher in South Korea.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe everything happens for a reason, and we are given trials and tribulations as learning experiences. I'm excited to grow and stretch myself as I travel and continue to experience life abroad!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed once while travelling in Singapore, but would like to try to surf in Korea, too. I usually book a hotel or hostel, but I think surfing sounds a lot more fun!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed for one night in Singapore, and it was awesome! My host made me feel very welcome and supported, and it was a really great insight on the culture and country that I wouldn't otherwise have had.
