CURRENT MISSION

Just live life to the fullest!

ABOUT ME

I'm, as stated, a freelance artist. Since the economy has made it difficult to make a living at my art, I also help people with their four footed family members. I love to travel and meet new people, and think this is a fabulous idea to allow for more of both! I have really loved connecting "virtually" with people from all over the world through the forums.

PHILOSOPHY

I just love to share this wonderful adventure we're all on together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love chatting over the forums, and hope to become more active with the local CS'ers in person.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I but have a network of friends throughout the US and Canada who travel the same way as Couchsurfers do all the time with each other. Sure helps with expenses, and is a whole lot more fun than just staying in a hotel by myself.

Interests

I'm currently really into training dogs, and teach classes and privately. my dog and I do Therapy dog visits to a local hospital, schools, libraries, and assisted living facilities.

I and my husband are into camping, traveling, canoing, bicycling, cross country skiing, science fiction conventions, organic gardening, traveling just for the fun of it, and love to learn new things.

I love experiencing new things, meeting new people, and just loving our interconnectedness!

Music, Movies, and Books

Love folk and classical music, jazz, some rock, host house concerts. Read voraciously, about all kinds of things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We recently threw the dogs in the back of our van, and drove to Arkansas to see the latest solar eclipse. Met people there from all over the US, got to touch their lives and be touched by them.

We've wilderness camped and canoed in various places.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share experiences with others, hear and see what they've done, seen, heard, share my own experiences. This is such a huge wonderful world! I want to be open to it all!

I'm pretty new to organic, sustainable "agriculture" ! ;-) and am always looking to learn more about that. We're starting to eat a lot of our landscaping, and I'm working on turning our whole home into a haven of healthy living, for us and all our friends.

I live in an area of amazing beauty and diversity, and love that I have the opportunity to share this with others.
