CURRENT MISSION

to live a life balanced between work and play

ABOUT ME

I'm a simple creature, who enjoys the comforts of tea and down comforters, good friends and cuddling, long hugs and rolling points of contact, live music and a crackling fire, dancing feet and hula hoops, comfy hiking boots and warm handknit scarves, luscious yarn and a good movie, good ingredients and a lively kitchen, conversation and a cup of good coffee or a glass of cheap wine.

PHILOSOPHY

we're all the same

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love both hosting and surfing for the joy of meeting new people.

When surfing I enjoy seeing a place thru the loving eyes of the residents.

When hosting I relish showing visitor the places I know and seeing it all afresh thru their eyes. It's like rediscovering the place I live and love.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed for the first time in Honduras in 2009 and since then have loved my experiences through couch surfing.
