Pharmacist from Upstate New York/Vermont in USA. Lived on the Texas/Mexico border in El Paso for 8 years. Now work 100% remote for myself running my own travel agency. Travel junkie, new to online business and love for waterfalls, mountains, street food and culture.

Currently spending lots of time hopping the border into Mexico and seeing the cities and pueblos. Hiked my first volcano in Guatemala in November 2016. I realized for being an avid hiker, I am still way out of shape.

Have taken several sabbaticals through Canada, Mexico, Central America, transatlantic cruises, Europe hot spots and more.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I have had so much fun hosting guests on AirBnB at my home in El Paso since starting in October 2014. I wanted to become more involved in the local communities when traveling and thought Couchsurfing would be the perfect opportunity to do so!

音乐、电影和书籍

Just finished reading 'Wild' by Cheryl Strayed and 'A Walk in the Woods' by Bill Bryson. Wanderlust never felt so good.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Visited Guanajuato, MX for Cervantino festival in October 2015. Amazing city, culture and festival!

I also completed an overnight volcano hike up Acatenango outside Antigua, Guatemala. I nearly died of exhaustion. But the views were outstanding.

教，学，和分享

Doctorate degree in pharmacy and knowledgable in western medicine. I've worked in pharmacy since 2009, so I have lots of experience in the health care setting.

Currently trying to learn Italian, French and learn more Spanish every day.

I love animals! I've grown up with cats, dogs, guinea pigs and chickens. I would love to meet your furry friends and be apart of their life. I am fluent in English and open to teaching you.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Happy to help around the house, whether that be with pets, house sitting while the host is out of town, etc. I'm happy to help teach english in exchange for a place to sleep. Open to other ideas and suggestions if you need help with anything!
