I love to travel. And now I'm encouraging my daughter to travel but to do so in a safe environment, with friends and family. We have an opportunity to visit Paris, France, and I wanted to explore this option for accommodations. Not sure if we'll do it, but I wanted to register to see how to go about doing it. I've traveled extensively throughout the United States, the Caribbean, Mexico. West Africa, United Kingdom, Hawaii (yes, part of the US I know, but many people leave out Hawaii and Alaska, the latter of which is still on my bucket list.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Jazz, Easy listening, straight ahead classics, R and B, and Rock music. My favorite movies are anything with Jason Bourne featuring Matt Damon, James Bond. My favorite books include self help topics, authors like Wayne Dyer, Depak Chopra and Robert Ludlum (back to the Jason Bourne theme again!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've helped women with breast cancer navigate how to get medical help. I think this is pretty special, since it helps people live longer and combat the disease.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching faith journaling. Whether it is with a Bible, Quran, Torah, any holy book that gives you inspiration, to color and draw in it is special because it helps you to relate to it in a new and interesting way.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A kind word, a meal I prepare, a smile, a thank you for hosting me.
