About me

Hi, I’m Carmen!

I’ve been a language teacher for 6 years and traveling for even longer. My love of languages began with a year spent in the Basque Country of Spain during high school. Since then, I’ve gotten a Master’s in Linguistics, taught university Spanish classes and ESL at a number of private English schools. I love learning, traveling and teaching (obviously) but I’m also crazy about my poodle-mutt Wilbur, cooking, kickboxing, puzzling and reading fiction.
