Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am excited to report that I finally found a dog friendly home in the lower haight. It is a great little neighborhood with lots of fun things to do and see. The only downside to my place is that there is no living room and therefore no couch. sad.

I just began teaching 3rd grade so my life as a first year teacher has just begun. Crazy. I love it but it means I really can only hang out on the weekends.
