About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploration

ABOUT ME

28 year old transient, teaching English in Mexico, I love to travel, hike, climb, camp, read, meet new people and places, love the ocean but live for the mountains, and I come with a sweet old hound dog who's my little mobile home!

PHILOSOPHY

There's no point in traveling if you don't stay long enough to find out what the locals eat for breakfast.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I'm staying in a one room cabin in Ixtlán, so I don't have much to offer but a little space on a concrete floor, except for info on Ixtlán and a bit on Oaxaca! I'm always down to meet new people, if you're just coming through this area and looking for someone to get a drink with, I'm in Oaxaca most weekends!

Interests

Professionally: education of women in developing nations/ education and health. I'm working at a University teaching English now, but would love to move into the humanitarian sector, educating women in need.
On a less serious note: Anything and everything outdoors! Camping, climbing, distance hiking, playing in the mountains or lounging by a beach ... Bluegrass! Reading, of course ... Travel - There's always more to be seen, and I want to know it all!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a beautiful stylish girl in Rome teaching her dog to ride on her vespa with her. Big dog, too, a lab i think. It was great.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an English teacher ... don't know if I'd say that's my forte tho - I know a smidge of wilderness first aide, and a bit of leave no trace philosophy, and a bit about travel, including lugging pets around the world with you :)
