About Me

SUSIE'S CURRENT MISSION

Share adventures and meet new people

ABOUT ME

I love adventure, travel and God. I am not afraid to try new things, and am young at heart. I've got a 'can do' attitude and am always finding the money, the time and the deals to travel. Also love art, music and culture. Been traveling since I was little and just love how it expands your mind as you meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to make this world a better place by helping others. I want to make a dent in this world through relationships and caring.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will host, travel and surf when I can. I no longer have a nice big house, but a little two bedroom house with one bath, but why not help people out.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted and surfed. I've been hosting and surfing with friends around the world for years, but was glad to finally find like minded people in the CS community. I've enjoyed every person I've met through CS and love that I can expand my horizons and meet others who aren't afraid to make new friends and learn from others' points of view.

Interests

People, art, photography, lots of different music but especially Folk & Irish, outdoor music festivals, museums, culture, and fun things like kayaking, canoeing, biking, etc. Though not as active as I use to be, I'm still young at heart. Was in the corporate world for 10 years, but gave that up for a more meaningful existence. We recently retired & moved back to North Florida.

Music: Folk, Celtic, Americana, Jack Johnson, Bob Marley, Mumford & Sons, and who doesn't love classic rock. Books: A variety, but my husband love history books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Birthed my daughter in a log cabin in Alaska, 300 miles from the nearest hospital with a whole group of people singing in the next room during the delivery. Slept in a hammock on a boat traveling down the Amazon river. Won a sweepstakes of $5000 when I was a young mom and absolutely broke with no car. Befriended a lot of people internationally.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn from all people. I'm a Christian but open minded. Anyone can get stuck in their rut and get closed off to change and growth.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Conversation, good food, rides, experiences, comfy bed, a home away from home, community life, fun things to do with me or with others. Try Megabus - Cheapest travel across the USA
