CURRENT MISSION

I'm have endless curiosity and an insatiable appetite for new experiences. I believe our purpose on earth is to be happy and happiness comes from compassion and gratitude. Motto: pay it forward!

ABOUT ME

Baby Boomer who took the "never grow old" pledge. Love music (playing, singing, writing, listening), dancing (Swing and Salsa), improv, live theatre, art, books, independent films. Have laptop, will travel.

PHILOSOPHY

Pay it forward. It'll come back to you ten-fold.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm convinced the best way to truly experience new locales is by spending time with local residents. I love hearing about the area I'm visiting as well as stories as my hosts' travels elsewhere.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many, where to start....flying slow and low over the crater of Mt St Helen in a 747.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a professional writer so I can edit or help compose just about anything. I can teach someone how to dance well enough to keep from embarrassing themselves first time out. For those who want a giggle, I know lots of improv games, the kind seen on Whose Line is it Anyway?

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a few talents that may be helpful - writing, editing, teaching how to do improv, sewing, cooking, dancing, and probably more that aren't foremost in my mind at the moment. I'm always willing to help in any way I can.

Countries I’ve Visited

Aruba, Barbados, Canada, Costa Rica, Denmark, England, France, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Martinique, Mexico, Netherlands, Romania, Scotland, Spain, Sweden, Virgin Islands, British, Virgin Islands, U.S.
