CURRENT MISSION

My sister and I have decided against the London games, and are planning a 10 day sojourn through France and Northern Italy.

ABOUT ME

My sister and I travel each year to a place on our "bucket list". So far we've taken in the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, downhill skiing in Vail and Beaver Creek Colorado, and an the next three years anticipate trips to France and Northern Italy, the Rose Bowl Parade, and the 2014 Winter Olympics in Russia.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is that everyone is entitled to their own attractions, beliefs, and opinions. My religious and personal philosophies are extremely liberal and inclusive.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None. That's why I/we are so interested!

Interests

In addition to a passion for working in sales sales strategy, competency, and training, I am a professional musician performing with the premiere English Handbell ensemble in the US. I also love great food and wine, a good book, and a marginal game of golf.

Music, Movies, and Books

Three favorite books of all time...
Water for Elephants
Les Miserables
The Red Tent
I'm not a huge fan of movies.
Musical taste runs from classical to Hip Hop.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My favorite place on Earth is the Cinque Terre in Italy. The drama of the Ligurian coast, history of their foods and culture, the colors of the architecture, and the wonderful hike between the towns combine to make it feel like heaven.
