A mama bear that has a husband and 5 adult children and numerous grandchildren. Love my family and friends and my work and travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is a great way to make new friends all around the world and most importantly stay with the local people in the country being visited. Experiencing the true culture of the people becomes a reality rather than staying in a hotel with people from other countries. When visiting a country I want to do what the locals do and experience their way of life.
