Hi! I have 3 grown children and 3 grandbabies. I spent most of my life working as a paralegal but quit my full-time job this year to become a broke law student! But I also got to study abroad this summer! love to travel and want to relocate out of Illinois once I graduate law school. I am hoping in the next few years to explore a few new places to see where I may want to end up once I pass the bar! Also, I was a single parent most of my life so I just want to travel and explore new places and do new things that I never got to do while I was raising my kids.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a broke law student! I also love the whole concept of learning new things from others and teaching them what I know in return!

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a little bit of everything depending on my mood! Country, Christian, 80s, classic rock, and even classical!
Love movies with meaning. My taste in movies is also all over the place. Just this week I have watched the thriller Bird Box, the documentary on Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Dumplin!
I spend most of my time reading textbooks about the law, however, I also like to listen to a lot of James Patterson books on audible!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ran a half marathon at Disney without training for it first! Crazy.....ask me and I will tell you the story!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn how to golf or speak another language. I would also love to learn more about woodworking or DIY home projects.
