Overview
About Me
In the summer of 2015 I traveled to Scandinavia with my daughter (Tuva, now 13). It was my first time back in 20 years! We had a lot of fun learning/speaking Swedish and visiting old friends and meeting new ones. People were so generous in sharing their homes with us that we are inspired to do the same.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
It is much more fun and interesting than a hotel. We enjoy having time to talk and share food with new friends. Locals know places to see that are off the beaten path and give a fresh perspective. I'm a networker and love to help folks make connections. You never know who is going to show up!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I was a fire fighter on an engine crew at the Yellowstone Park fires in 1998. We spent 45 days digging trenches and chasing smoke. I used my hazard pay to buy by first mountain bike and panniers, and I still have the bags!
