About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy conversation & cultural exchange

ABOUT ME

I had a wonderful childhood growing up in Zimbabwe (Southern Africa)- many fond memories of the African way of life (balance, simplicity, humility, "I have enough"). Moved to USA & now live in a very busy city of Dallas. Never dreamed I would be living in America - it's like everything I saw in the movies & on TV growing up.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in Kharma - so I am conscious of my intent & practice gratitude for what I have, every day. I believe in humor & being light-hearted in our daily life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Enjoy meeting people & getting to know them. Enjoy reading & watching movies. Enjoy trying different experiences in life. Keep an open mind.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a newbie - but heard a lot about it.

Interests

I did Japanese home stay - & loved it! It was the easiest & best way for me to travel extensively around Japan - in exchange, I would teach English to the family or just practice speaking it with the kiddos in the family.
