Hello! I love to be active and try new things. During my travels, I've been doing a lot of acrobatic/partner yoga and rock climbing wherever I go. At the end of this trip, I'm also planning to move outside the US to one of the places I visit during my travels. I also mix in other sports, touring museums, trying local foods and learning about cultures, etc. So basically, I'm open to trying anything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and have been pet sitting through TrustedHouseSitters this year. I love animals and have had a number of wonderful experiences but I'd love to try a different form of travelling and exploring now, especially focusing on connections with people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have varied interests and pursuits but for me the most amazing thing was swimming up close with whale sharks!

Teach, Learn, Share

English is my native language so I can teach that. I can also help you learn most physical activities/skills. So if you're looking to learn some random skill to impress your friends, family, or dog, don't hesitate to ask. Speaking of dogs, I love and am very good with animals.

I work in computer science so I can help teach some in that regard as well. I fancy myself good at problem solving and have designed and built multiple things (ex: a custom desk out of wood). I enjoy languages, random knowledge... pretty much everything so I love to hear about your passions as well (^_^)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am happy to teach skills, both physical and mental, discuss all things large and small, give language practice if you are working on English, share stories, cultures, and random knowledge. I'm new to CouchSurfing so I'm not yet sure what all people would like but feel free to ask. I'm happy to oblige wherever I can (^_^)
