About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be abke to share my rich African experiences with others.My training has equipped me with a lot of rich cultural experience and would love to share.

ABOUT ME

Am the eternal optimist.Am a legal resident alien and have the right to stay/work in the USA. I am a youg 66 year old and by virtue of my training as a tour operator, love sharing experiences and telling people about my culture. I love reading and will read any book.
I have lived in Ghana most of my life. Was educated in England. Lived in India, Poona for two years. Have travelled extensively and very broadminded.
I am trustworthy, compassionate and love life. Am fun to be with.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to help other human beings as best as I can. Unfortunately, somehow, people end up taking advantage of my kindness..I continue do do good wherever and whenever I can. I give a long rope but at the end of it, I am able to let go, forgive and move on. I cannot say I forget as that would not help me in a later encounter. We are guided by history.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Will participate by sharing my cultural experiences. I can also hook up other CS members find families in Ghana as I know the terrain well.
I am very knowledgeable on West Africa and environs and am sure my experience will help the CS project

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I do not know if it can be called couchsurfing. After my 2 year stay in India, I decided, after 9 years of returning to Ghana, to take a vacation there. I went with a friend and we were both working for an Airline.. which meant discounted tickets.. which meant you could be offloaded if flt was full.We were kicked off a flight in Bombay and had to stay at the Airport.I thought I had a fair experience with mosquitoes but you know nothing until you have encountered the mosquitoes at Bombay airport. It was a Couch with a difference.

Interests

Travelling, solving Puzzles,Cooking, reading and spending quality time with people.

I love the theater and enjoy NatGeo and History programs on the television. I listen to the radio news a lot.
