Description

I am Ruth (female, 18 years old), and I am taking a gap year before college! I am excited to travel and see the world. I love to listen to Taylor Swift, eat vegan food, and learn languages. I have taken four years of high school Mandarin Chinese and completed the second college level of Japanese. I like to play soccer, and I am a hard worker. I love being outside. I am from Indiana in the United States, and after my gap year I plan to go to college to study political science. I am excited to learn about other cultures. I have American and Irish citizenship and I am half-Irish.

I have worked as a teacher for religious school, math tutoring, and K-pop dancing. I teach the preschool class at Sunday school so I have experience working with small children, as well as elementary school children whom I have tutored. I have learned hard work through conditioning with my high school soccer team at 6am. I have experience cooking vegan food for myself, and also cooking vegetarian food.
