Description
Hi there! I'm selling my belongings and leaving my country this October 2026 to travel around Asia. I hope to travel, teach, and learn new things while searching for a unique opportunity to land anywhere in the world. During this time of backpacking, I have a lot of goals and intentions:
Explore & Wander - landscapes, cultures, spirituality, foods, markets
Listen & Connect - with hosts, myself, locals, travelers
Learn - new skills such as gardening, holistic/herbal remedies, languages, dances, tourism/hospitality mangagement
Rest - take time for me and enjoy a slower pace of life
Move - hike, dance (I LOVE to dance), stretch, surf (i'm a very beginner and want to learn more!)
Disconnect - from screens, comfort & convenience
Write - personal journal and blogging
My professional experience:
I currently work for the largest adult, community-based literacy center in my state as an English instructor and coordinator. I focus on family literacy, health literacy, digital literacy and English language instruction. I have years of experience working in multilingual environments and teams. I love moments with my team or students where we connect over cultures and language in shared learning.
My travel experience:
Mexico 2017 - One week volunteer
Peru 2017 - Study abroad program (3.5 months)
Costa Rica 2018 - 10 Day backpacking trip
Spain 2020 - Workaway/Backpacking (3 months)
Dominican Republic 2025 - Solo trip for holiday

What else ...
We love to play board games, go on walks, hike, go camping, cook together, take pictures/videos and travel to new places. We are different than other people our age because we are more mature and not interested in clubbing. As a couple we have traveled to Costa Rica. McKenna has also traveled to Peru and Mexico. Ethan has traveled to Honduras. We hope to travel and see many parts of Spain and possibly other parts of Europe during our time. We are so excited to make new friends and see your country!
Nos encantan jugar los juegos de la mesa, caminar, cocinar juntos, sacar fotos/videos y viajar a lugares nuevos. Nosotros somos diferentes que los otros de nuestra edad porque somos más maduros y no tenemos interés en ir a las discotecas. Hemos viajado juntos a Costa Rica. McKenna también ha viajado a Perú y a México. Ethan ha viajado a Honduras. Nos espera viajar y ver muchas lugares en España y posiblemente otros partes de Europa durante nuestro viaje. ¡Estamos emocionados a conocer nuevos amigos y ver tu país!
