CURRENT MISSION

Find my bliss!

ABOUT ME

My traveling years are just beginning. Up until a few years ago I had never been on an airplane. Now, I have lived in another country and intend to explore as many others as I can. I am friendly and very open minded. I love reading, writing, hiking, kayaking, traveling and discovering new cultural nuances. I teach composition at a local university and write as often as I can. I love reading, which means my mind is often off traveling when I wish my body were as well.

PHILOSOPHY

"Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its troubles, it empties today of its strength."

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By sleeping on people's couches, eating their food, and sharing good times.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed several times and have met the most amazing people that otherwise I would have never met.

Centres d'intérêt

knitting words together to form a strand of beauty, the warm aroma of coffee, the feel of rain on my face, the smell of an old book, the ripple formed in the water by my kayak oar, fresh cut grass, rowdy sport fans, poetry readings...
