CURRENT MISSION

To be an itinerant adventurer

ABOUT ME

My friends would say that I have a finely honed appreciation of the absurd. I'm a quiet "geeky" person with a wicked sense of humour. Great to have around in a crisis because I seem to know just what to do (but I'd be clueless in an alien invasion or zombie attack and would be running around screaming with everyone else). It takes very little to please me therefore I'm a cheap date. Beyond that my friends would say I am kind, loyal and fun-loving.

PHILOSOPHY

You only get one kick at the can so kick the crap out of it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While I didn't need a place to stay I did meet some very nice couch surfers when I was in Lyon last year.

Interests

Too many interests to mention but I love films, anything with shiny knobs and buttons, animals of all kinds (I volunteer grooming horses for a therapeutic riding program), being in nature (hikes/walks/camping), I can sail, drive a semi, knit, sew, love to read, cooking and eating new dishes, gosh, I could go on and on....
