  • Description

    Hello! A little about me: I am an adventurous person and always willing to try new things. I am eager to experience different lifestyles, meet interesting people, and learn new skills. I am also quite introspective, and enjoy writing and reflecting on my experiences.

    I have recently graduated from university with a degree in Applied Linguistics and am now starting to build my life around travel. I have been gaining more experience teaching English in person and online, and would like to work as an instructional designer in the future helping create online resources for people interested in language learning.

    More details about my language interests
    Hello, I am interested in practicing my Japanese, and start learning Hungarian. I am an intermediate Japanese speaker and have been living in Japan for about 9 months. I have no experience speaking Hungarian, so anything you can teach me is awesome! I would love to help you with your English, or if you are also learning Japanese I'm happy to practice together as well!

  • More details about your skills

    I have a degree in Applied Linguistics; focusing on teaching English as a Foreign or Additional Language. I will also get my TESOL certification along with the degree which is in progress now. My first language is English, and I have been learning Japanese, and know some very basic ASL.

    I have experience in housekeeping; I worked as a seasonal housekeeper during university for four summers, and was a team lead (worked as one of the leads of a small group of workers and answered directly to the manager) and am currently working as a housekeeper here in Japan.

    I am also decent writer, have experience in retail, and personal care.

  • What else ...

    Some hobbies outside of what I said already; I love board games, puzzles, and craft projects, and going for walks. I also enjoy partner dancing, yoga, and hiking. Outdoor activities are also something I enjoy; I have been skiing this winter (2024), and have started to learn how to surf! I just finished the doing Ohenro pilgrimage, and have found a love for pilgrimages and long treks.
