I just retired from my profession as a registered nurse last year. I have 3 grown children who are living in Thousand Oaks, Oakland and San Francisco CA. In November I will be a grandmother for the first time. I have a facebook, and references through airbnb, trusted housesitters, work-away and mind my home. This would be my first couchsurf so no references here yet. I have just returned from a 4 month house sit in Costa Rica. I have travelled to Central America, Canada, France and Spain and through out the US. I love to travel and meet new people.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

Well, in September I would like to couch surf so that I can attend my daughter's baby shower in Thousand Oaks on September 24th. In the future I would love to couch surf to meet new people and experience different cultures.

Музыка, кино и книги

Favorite music right now is still Jorge Drexler. Favorite movie is "Talk to her" by Pedro Almodovar. I am reading Game of Thrones right now. I am on book 5 but it is just for escape and diversion. I enjoy both "self help" categories such as "Love is being Happy with" by Barry Kaufman and "The Story of Your Life: Becoming the Author of Your Experience" by Mandy Aftel as well as any historical fiction.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Took my then 14 year old son for a trip to France and climbed the tower at Chateau de Foix.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I have taught beginning Spanish to health care providers. Once thought to lead a trip to Mexico but never did...maybe no too late!

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

I am a pretty good cook and I can provide dinner..or breakfast. I am extremely organized and wouldn't mind putting in a couple of hours of help in that arena.
