I have a home near Washington D.C. with two comfortable couches each in their own space, I now have a spare guest room available on a limited basis, and an in home bar, . Sleeping bags are of course available too with plenty of floor space.

I am metro accessible to the city, a 1.6 mile walk from the metro to my house. A lockable shed in the back for bicycles as well.

I am a teacher, and I love meeting new people from all walks of life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a social butterfly and enjoy the company of people from different cultures and walks of life. I have already taken two world tours. One to northern Europe covering Benelux france and Iceland, One to southeast Asia covering Thailand, Cambodia, and India.
