Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Other than staying with friends and relatives around the world I have never couch surfed with a complete stranger. So far we have only hosted . Hosting people allows us to have connections with others in foreign lands for future travels.
Music, Movies, and Books
JD Robbs, Ken Follet,German for Dummies and other self learning books. Rock music even a little country. Favorite Movie by far Dances with Wolves. As a Mini fan I'd also have to say the original "Italian Job".
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I have been to Alaska and come face to face with a bear. Luckily there was so much salmon and so many berries it had no interest in me.
Teach, Learn, Share
I enjoy meeting all kinds of people. But I like people who share in a conversation without monopolizing it. I believe that everyone has something to contribute regardless of age.
What I Can Share With Hosts
My experiences of traveling. My knowledge of how to research your family tree. Recipes from my German mother . The ins and outs of traveling around Montreal by public transportation. Amazing wildlife(nature).
My Interests
Austin Minis and British Cars. Family and traveling to discover our European roots and family members world wide. Genealogy . We ask that you bring unsalted peanuts (shell or not). Sunflower seeds, unsalted, raw in the hull. This way you will be able to take advantage of watching the nature show at feeding time.
