About Me

CURRENT MISSION

educate myself and others thru connecting, sharing learning

ABOUT ME

I love traveling and meeting new people from other
countries. I have found such welcoming people when I
visited other countries that I want to do the same
here at home.

I have traveled to europe, and to
central and south america, and to parts
of asia and the south pacific (plus trips to
hawaii). I cannot wait to get back to europe when I
have more time, because I absolutely love old towns and cities and hanging out in them. There are so many places on other continents I want to see as well!!!

No couch currently available as I just moved everything I own into a studio apt so it's filled up with boxes. Hope to have more space sometime in the future!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

just started. hoping to be more involved in CS soon!!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've done some couchsurfing on my own.

I usually just use Couchsurfing for "coffee & a drink" when I'm traveling (since 2008). Also, I attend CS events and meetings at home and when traveling. It's a wonderful community! I hope to Couchsurf with others in their homes and mine someday soon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

taught myself (with the help of many mentors) how to sort of take apart a house and then put it back together. I never would have imagined myself doing anything mechanical, but I have.

learning about the world via non-conventional means--observing how things fit together in our world.

and of course one of the wonders of the world: Venice, Italy

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make a great omelette, I speak some french and a little spanish, and I have my own view of how things function which may be helpful, or just different!!! I know a little about a lot of things, so one of the random tidbits stored in my memory might be helpful, who knows.
