My husband and I are the parents of four sons, ages 13-22. Before kids, we toured much of the US with a repertory theater company and loved staying in host homes. Once we settled down, we joined a hospitality directory to pay it forward and have enjoyed hosting many travelers. One recent traveler told us about Couchsurfing, so we signed up!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

You mean other than giving birth to four amazing sons? ;-)

Spending the summer in Ecuador with my youngest son. Standing at the equator with one foot in the northern hemisphere, one foot in the southern hemisphere. Teaching women's health classes in Nicaragua.

Oops...guess that's more than one!
