CURRENT MISSION

To experience as much of the world as I can, while I can.

A youthful senior, semi retired, independent, self motivated, American woman, who loves to laugh, enjoy a good meal, shop, and who is curious about other cultures.
Kind, helpful, respectful, curious, and creative.
Enjoy life to the fullest, and exploit your passion.
My belief is people should plant their garden and decorate their soul!!!

PHILOSOPHY

Each day is a blessing, and the first day of the rest of your life.
Wake up each and every day, and be grateful for the gift of life.
The meaning of life is the leave the world a better place than we found it.
I believe we are our brother's keeper and I feel a personal responsibility to help others.
To respect our planet, our fellow man, and ourselves.
I respect everyone, until they give me a reason not to.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
VERY IMPORTANT....
DEAR POTENTIAL SURFERS.............
PLEASE READ BEFORE REQUESTING TO BE HOSTED.
SEND A PROPER REQUEST, NOT A MESSAGE
I WILL ONLY HOST ONE GUEST AT A TIME AS MY PLACE IS SOMEWHAT SMALL.
COUCH SURFING IS A CULTURAL EXCHANGE PROGRAM.
I DON'T KNOW MY WORK SCHEDULE MORE THAN TWO WEEKS IN ADVANCE.
IF YOU DO NOT CONFIRM WITHIN 48 HOURS I WILL RESCIND MY ACCEPTANCE AND GIVE IT TO THE NEXT SURFER.........

I participate by hosting others, and trying to provide a safe, clean, and harmonious environment while they explore their dream city.
Generally speaking I am not interested in seeing the tourists sites, after living here for over 27 years.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started my CS experience last May surfing with a Parisian host.
I started hosting late last year, and have hosted approximately 50 people.
