I am retired, and a former English professor. I lived in San Francisco for a solid 26 years, and have lived in New York City on and off for the rest of my life. I am open minded, liberal, Love politics and the arts, and I don’t take myself very seriously. I can’t cook.

I will be visiting San Miguel de Allende December 15-21. Am staying in an Airbnb.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I am thinking of moving to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico in the next little while, It would be wonderful to meet and chat with others who live there. Tell me about you, about your experiences, and your city! I would be thrilled to hear from you. If you would like to know about NYC or San Francisco, I can tell you lots!

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

I am a music fanatic! Love small, unheard- of bands, punk, jazz, opera, country, cumbia, mariachi, popular music. Favorite book? Probably “One Hundred Years of Solitude.” Favorite movie? Probably “Irma LaDouce” or anything from Billy Wilder’s later work. Love old film.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Uh....overcoming heartbreak? I think it was amazing that I was allowed to get a doctorate. But some people know me for a long time without knowing I am over educated! I sang with a band for a while, even though I have no talent. But I suppose these things are brave, rather than amazing.

I am an expert on finding cheap rental housing in nyc and sf. Seriously. I can help you.
