Traveler Bio

My name is Tim Gruber. I am an English Teaching Assistant in the small town of Tenom, Sabah in Malaysia. I grew up in Davidson, North Carolina and attended the University of Richmond where I studied history and French. My sophomore year in college I studied abroad in Paris, France and was able to submerge myself within French culture. Additionally, I was a member of the men's cross-country and track teams in college. Since graduating college in 2016, I taught elementary school for two years in Richmond, Virginia and have come to call that place home. Aside from teaching I love to run, read and hike. I am looking forward to what this year in Malaysia has in store for me! I'm so excited to share this experience with you, too!
