Overview
About Me
I retired in 1998. I am a serial traveler. I travel on average 6 months a year. If I see someplace I like, I obtain housing and stay awhile. I have done this three times in my life. Don't ask me how many countries, I have lost count. I hope to see Southern Italy and Poland before I head home.
My son, his wife and my grandchildren live just outside Oxford, UK in a tiny village. I try to visit them at least once a year in the fall when we have a couple of birthdays and an anniversary.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have the time and my pension. Although it is not much, it is enough to enjoy my retirement. Hostels are great but when I travel I like to immerse myself in the culture. Eat different foods and follow their customs. I was recently introduced to Couchsurfing from a woman who was staying in a hostel. I like the idea of staying with a local when I travel.
Music, Movies, and Books
I don't have favorite types of music, movies or books. I am happy to let the group or individual pick what they like. It expands my knowledge of each. I could list things I don't like.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Actually, I do not know which thing I should share. My whole life has been pretty amazing.
Teach, Learn, Share
Willing to do all of the above. I acquired many skills over the years.
What I Can Share with Hosts
My experiences, of course. I can fix almost anything. Very Computer literate and can fix them also.
