Description

I am a college graduate from Michigan with a degree in Spanish and Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL/ESL).

Studying Spanish ignited a spark in me that completely changed the course of my life. Throughout my studies, I quickly fell in love with the process of language acquisition and felt inspired by the opportunities it created to connect with people and learn about their cultures.

So far, I have traveled to Costa Rica, Perú, México, Nicaragua, and Japan. My passion for language and travel was solidified by my experiences living with host families in Costa Rica (2018) and Japan (2019). I feel eternally grateful and privileged to have spent time practicing our languages with each other, sharing stories, playing, and going on adventures together. I am convinced that the best way to learn about a country and its culture is to fully immerse yourself in connections with people.

My other passion is organic, regenerative, and permaculture farming. I love taking care of the land while it takes care of us. I spent a year living and working on a regenerative livestock farm in Michigan. I loved the physical labor, working with the animals, and learning about the relationships between the soil, plants, animals, and humans. My goal is to learn more about farming and alternative construction methods that will contribute to a happier, healthier planet.

For work, I love physical labor and all the sweat and dirt that includes. I am comfortable using power tools, operating tractors, and working with plants and animals. I am willing and eager to learn anything! My education is in language and teaching, so I would be happy to teach/practice English.

I am hardworking, energetic, thorough, organized, and tidy. Finding fun in challenges is important to me, and I look forward to learning and laughing each new day. My main values include direct communication, integrity, open-mindedness, and optimism.

In my free time, I enjoy dancing, arts and crafts, bouldering, trying new food, being outside, and exploring.

I believe our purpose as humans is to learn and connect with others and to experience the world through our senses and broad range of emotions. I am beyond excited to grow and experience the wonders beyond the borders of comfort and familiarity!
