Hello Everyone!
I am jazzed to find this website! I would love to connect with other teachers
who have the willingness to travel with other teachers! In fact, on my own
travels, I have spontaneously met other teachers who turned out to be
wonderful travel companions!
I live on the West coast (Sacramento, California) and am interested in
domestic and international travel with a safe, adventurous, like-minded group
of people (who might just happen to be teachers)! I also teach at a year-
round school, so I have time other than summer to travel.
Please keep me posted! I would very much like to stay in contact and
eventually link up with some of you on upcoming journeys.
New Zealand or Asia anyone?!
