I'm a registered nurse who's currently staying at home and unschooling my 2 younger kids.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My daughter actually signed us up, but we enjoy having company. It seems like a really cool way to meet some interesting people

Interests

History- especially ancient, Languages, People- a coworker once nicknamed me Barbara Walters, travel, Psychology, holistic medicine, there's not much I don't have at least a little curiosity about

• traveling
• history
• languages
• medicine
• nursing
• psychology

Music, Movies, and Books

Like most types of music except country which I can stand some in small doses
I like most film genres but have a hard time sitting through really stupid comedies (dumb and dumber comes to mind).
As far as books I enjoy, I'll read the shampoo bottle if that's all I can find. I enjoy informative, especially travel, books but I also really like a well told story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done a lot of things that are fascinating to me but I feel like if I could do it, anyone can.
I am, however, constantly amazed by things I see almost every day - a sunset, gorgeous ferns on a hillside, a walk through the forest in the fog.
And I saw the Dalai Lama at Volcán Irázu in Costa Rica.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm preparing to return to school for my holistic nursing certification. In addition to my interest in herbs and essential oils, I would like to study complementary techniques for pain management.
