I'm a mom of 5 kids. But sometimes I can get out with only one or two of them. So on that occasion, I'd love to try couchsurfing. I live in Germany as an American. I'm a doula, a lactation counselor, and natural health instructor.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I live my life as though all new people are friends I haven't yet met. So this seems a perfect fit. My sister and sister in law have both done couchsurfing and I thought I couldn't due to all my kids.... but if I only bring one, maybe someone will accept a request!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a recovering librarian. Books are my friends. Reading Bringing Up Bebe and The 4 Hour Work Week right now. Continuum Concept and Anne of Green Gables are favorites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had my first baby while my husband was deployed with the military. I know I can do anything now.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share ideas with others and learn new things in exchange. I lead local groups on natural parenting and essential oils, and I make some wonderful friends in the process.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share some of my baby Theodore's cute smiles and I will probably bring some essential oils as a thanks. Because that's just what I do.
