I'm a recently Returned Peace Corps Volunteer; I lived in Kosovo, training teachers in English language instruction and assisting in sustainable community development.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm living on a Peace Corps budget but still would like to travel! I've always traveled cheaply and am no stranger to couch surfing, both myself and hosting others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I'm doing something amazing right now-- fully immersing into a new country, living like a member of a Kosovar family, learning Albanian, finding out what the community needs are and how I can help.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes please! I can teach you Zumba, we can dance and have fun; I can teach you smatterings in about 6 different languages; I can help you with any chores, I can listen to you and share my own life with you...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have stories from all over the world! I grew up in a very creative, adventurous family, semi-nomadic at times, and when I was 11-15 years old we lived in Mozambique, in southern Africa. I've continued to travel on my own, and now this passion has led me to Kosovo, where I am serving for 2 years as a Peace Corps Volunteer. I'm learning Albanian and living with a Kosovar host family.
