My favorite parts about travel are meeting new people and learning about other cultures. And since I can't travel all the time, hosting and visiting on Couchsurfing is a great way to do this.

Une chose incroyable que j'ai faite
Road trip from the Guatemalan border, through Belize, up to the Yucatan in Mexico and all the amazing people and sights we saw along the way.
Enseigner, apprendre, partager
Teach: I love to explore new place (and "new to you" places) and am happy to do that together. Favorites: Indian, Mexican, Ethiopian (all vegetarian). Learn: I always want to learn more of the languages, wherever I go. Share: I'm happy to share my food and pets whenever someone visits. Also recommendations for great restaurants that aren't on the standard lists, lesser-known hikes, and fun and funky shops or "known to locals only" areas.
Ce que je peux offrir à mes hôtes
Cooking and baking something delicious! Travel stories. Books. Something fun from Portland.
Mes centres d'intérêt
My lifetime passion is writing and all forms of art. I'm a published writer of short stories and poetry, which have appeared in a variety of literature journals. In my 'day job' I'm a Manager of a Software Engineering team for a Fortune 500 company. It's a long story how I got to this role from a Master's in Literature but if you ask me, I'm happy to tell you - lol! I love films, live music, reading, yoga, hiking, and of course travel to new places and meeting new people/new friends.
