CURRENT MISSION

travel, teach, learn

ABOUT ME

I moved around the U.S. as a kid, and have moved too many times as an adult. My son was born in 2016 and we have three dogs and two cats. We moved to Azerbaijan from Dominican Republic in August 2022. I spent two very happy years in Sudan and three beautiful years in Kodiak, Alaska. Sometimes I miss those places so much it hurts, but I have "itchy feet."

PHILOSOPHY

Treat people well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've enjoyed hosting and showing travelers around in Las Vegas, Kodiak, Al Ahsa, Bologna, Khartoum, Bangkok, and Baku!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've traveled with, met, and hosted many wonderful couchsurfers... or 'couchpeople' as my friend once called them. I've couchsurfed numerous times and all experiences were perfect thanks to great hosts!
