About Me

Pretty easy-going (I think)...like to party with friends, but also like to chill out and relax when the time is right.So far, I've spent about 2 years of my life living and teaching ESL in Korea. It's been an amazing experience - I've met some great people, and had a ton of laughs. After a short holiday back in Canada and abroad, I'm returning to Korea for another year or so before moving to Hawaii to become a teacher in the Aloha state... so that's the plan, but we'll just have to wait and see how things go!

My Interests

Travel, adrenaline rushes, anything involving the beach, volleyball, hiking, camping, climbing, teaching children

I'd like to meet:

Pretty much everyone...except people who are rude and/or insincere.

Music:

Jack Johnson, India Arie, Spearhead, Ben Harper, Sublime, Chris Cornell, Nellie Furtado, Bob Marley, The Tragically Hip, Cake,

Movies:

British Columbia

Television:
