I’m a successful mosaic artist who travels to teach my techniques, and creates fine art and commissions. We love to travel and meet new like-minded people. I’m from Toronto, Canada, and have lived in Michigan, Chicago, Charlotte, NC, and Austin, TX. I’m Ojibwe (First Nations) and have a strong connection with my culture. I’ve lived in Austin for 26 years with my husband, and two kids (now adults).

We have a dog and cat, both friendly and gentle.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

My husband Paul Sonnenberg has had an account for a few years, and we have been hosting couchsurfers together. You can refer to his profile to see some of the reviews we’ve gotten. I’m creating my own account because sometimes I travel independently, for work and/or pleasure.

We have had some of the best experiences getting to know new people from all over the world.

Música, películas y libros

I have really diverse tastes...I love music that moves me, movies that make me think and laugh and cry, and books that engage my attention.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I’ve found my biological family in Canada (I was adopted) and have developed lovely relationships with my birth parents and extended family. I’ve had the opportunity to connect with not only my family, but my indigenous community and culture.
