I am 57 year old Australian woman heading into my semi retirement years.I have worked in schools most of my adult life but like to step out into other workplaces to broaden my inner architecture so I have also worked in health, community and construction.I am the mother of adult children and have a loving husband. My current focus is work and travel 😎

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Thought I might get out to local venues while I'm in Florence and practice my Italian. Am looking for people to inform me as to what's happening out and about in Florence this July 👏

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

Love all sorts of music art and film but sorry to say I don't read many books these days. My favourite author is Tom Robbins who wrote among other things Still Life with Woodpecker, Jitterbug Perfume and Another Roadside Attraction.
