About Me

I'm a senior lady who has unfortunatly been unable to do nearly as much travelling as I would have liked . I am friendly, non-judgemental, love learning about different cultures, LGBTQ+ friendly. I enjoy being around people of all ages. I especially enjoy the energy and perspectives of young folks. I am a lifelong learner, and since retirement have accessed many classes on different topics, including language (Spanish and Mandarin), drama, writing, etc.
I worked in the Sexual Health Program in Public Health for many years. I loved my job, especially one-on-one education and testing with clients. I always learned something new from my clients.
My home is an ACCESSIBLE bungalow with no stairs. I may not be able to accommodate someone in a wheelchair but if you are able to transfer, I have a transport chair you can use. I have a guest room with a queen bed. There is a shared bathroom. I have an occupied in-law suite in the basement. I also have an in-ground swimming pool.
FEMALES ONLY PLEASE

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the philosophy and the opportunity to meet the friends I haven't met yet. I also like the possibility of accessing accommodations that don't break the bank.
