CURRENT MISSION

I am headed out for lots of skiing, hanging with my aging dog, and travel nursing outside of Idaho where I have been the last many years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been on and off active on Couch surfing a very long time. I am ready to make it active in my life again and meet some new faces!

It's such a great way to travel! Meeting locals and getting to know a city through their eyes. Good stuff.

Hosting people - learning people's stories! Helping out travelers. Love it all.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I was a professional musician for many years, and I can honestly say I love just about any kind of music. There is a time and space for all of it.

Books:
I read all the time! It's one of my favorite things to do. I feel off kilter if I don't have a book to read. I read a lot of fiction and literature, but often will take a season and only read things I wouldn't normally gravitate towards - excellent way to discover and to have neat conversations with people who do read those things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was featured on a hip hop album as a violinist in Rwanda, Africa!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a nerd for general numbers and logic related topics and puzzles. Also culture.
I want to hear your story! Why are you traveling? What is the number one thing on your must-do-in-my-lifetime list? What are you nerdy about? Weirdest thing you've eaten?

I can teach you:
Some medical things, some music things, some wine things...
I love learning about and educating on humans - why are we the way we are?

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughter! An adventure buddy! All sorts of stories - I am a story teller.
