Description

I am an adventurous, fun loving person who is always up for a new challenge. I love meeting new and interesting people and learning about different ways of life. I have found what brings me most happiness in life is the freedom to live boldly, staying true to my values, staying connected with my hobbies and interests, and exploring new avenues of thought, expansion, and growth.

I am passionate about working with kids, teaching, language learning, creative writing, and water sports. Most of my life I have spent in the water. I was a competitive swimmer for 12 years, a swim instructor for 6, and I recently started surfing and immediately fell in love with the sport. My favorite place in the world is by the water so any opportunity which keeps me near the sea is perfect for me.
