Mid-30's medical professional who loves to travel, but whose budget is strict. 2 kids: one is grown & the other loves meeting new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people, especially those not from Phoenix. I like to host when I can, and prefer to stay with real people while traveling, instead of at sterile hotels.

Interests
