I grew up in the South of the US, but I don't have a Rebel flag and sometimes people ask me "Where is your accent at?" I dreamed of becoming a writer when I was young but somehow became a nurse that still loves to write and read. My faith is my foundation; I don't mind lively discussions and dialogue about people's views, faiths, cultures, and politics, however I don't like to argue. For me, the best conversations usually involve laughter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've traveled a lot and have met many kind, amusing, intelligent people along the way and this is another way to do it.

Interests

I love learning new things. In my most recent trip in New England, on a whim I took a sailing lesson and can now "trim the jib" and "hoist the main". I love traveling internationally, but my current "bucket list" is seeing all 50 states, and I'm closing in on the finish line on that.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many amazing moments to list one. But one of my favorite memories is sunrise at Haleakala on Maui with my sister.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always open to learning anything anyone wants to teach or share. I always say, "I'll try anything twice."

What I Can Share with Hosts

I cook, I sing, sometimes all at the same time.
