I travel to learn, but I'm also an adventure-centered traveler. I like seeing everything a country has to offer. My husband is my usual travel companion. I tend to focus my travels on food, learning local customs, the nations history, music, a bit of the country’s language....and more food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I typically don't require much, and I pride myself on respecting others' spaces and am mindful of unspoken boundaries, cultural rules and common courtesies. I look forward to meeting locals from the area and would enjoy someone that can show me their favorite parts of where they live (if available 🙃).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I kayaked 12 miles down the Colorado River which is also the only kayaking experience I have.

Teach, Learn, Share

I usually travel with tea, and I’m more than happy to share a good cup.

I like to ask questions to gain insight rather than make assumptions.
