Do all the good you can, all the ways you can, for as long as you can. Laugh everyday and I give as many smiles away each day as I can!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I lead an active life. Working part-time for a Chiropractor, as a Face Painter, (not portrait-just decorating folks)giving Care for the Caregiver workshops using Laughter Yoga techniques to share Laugh for Health. Friends are at my home most of the week.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am just starting to really participate in CS. Looking forward to meeting friendly, warm, helpful, interesting folk.

Interests

Having a "Purpose-full project". Finding ways to help others have a better life. Teaching Spoken English that others can understand. Enjoying food, friends and wine together. I volunteer a lot, with Wine Events, Legal aide, Red Cross, with Art events, Historic Preservation - I love to have friends over to my home, for food and conversation.

Music, Movies, and Books

Hunger Games, The Princess Bride, Harold and Maude, Classical Music, Striaght Up Jazz, ususally my favorite book is whatever the one I am currently reading.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As a Volunteer, I co-founded a FREE school for poor students in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, where they could take lessons in English Spoken Clearly,to prepare them to work with any English speaking person/tourist from anywhere in the world. I trained the Teachers in this work, using the textbook I had written. I believe when a person can earn a living that is the best skill one can share.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am quite good at sharing Laughter-for-Health, how to use laughter to increase health, vitality in ones life. I am also pretty good at accent reduction for speakers of English as a Second Language.
