I’m trying very hard to make travel a part of my life. I believe that exploring new places and making connections with new people is one of the very best parts of being alive on this good earth.

At home, I love growing food and flowers, and raising animals and children. I work hard and try to play hard. I’m lucky to live in a beautiful place, and get out to hike as often as possible.

Abroad, I love to try new food, find beautiful new places, learn new skills, and discover all of those little secret places that make a place wonderful and unique!

I am a little shy, but love making new friends, and have an easy going outlook and personality.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I am currently unable to host guests because my house is being remodeled, but that should change when the big project is complete and we get a new private guest room. However, I am always excited to meet up with people visiting the area! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I couchsurfed for the first time in France with Jeremy and Vitor. It was probably the most incredible travel experience I’ve ever had. I met other couchsurfers from Portugal, Poland, Italy, Australia, and France all within 5 days in the same flat. Wonderful! I also hosted two lovely people, Amelia and Melissa, during their move across country. Lots of great conversation and many laughs to be had.
