ABOUT ME

So I have lived abroad for 20 years and recently moved back to America. We have welcomed coachsurfers wherever we have gone and will continue. We love sharing with travelers open to new experiences.

I don't do as much traveling as I'd like to anymore with a busy job and kids, so I figure, if I can't go out and travel, I'll just have to invite travel in. I'm a good listener and enjoy a good story.

Please note that I do not accept single men alone. Only couples or women.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a few times while in tanzania and Swaziland. Now I live on the outskirts of dc so I'm not sure who would want to come here, but my door is open. I am not walking distance to a metro stop. You would need to take an uber to the metro or I am happy to Give you a ride at 8 am.

Centres d'intérêt

• traveling

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I like movies along the theme of 'inner city class meets well meaning teacher who is challenged by the hardship of their lives, but continues to help them anyway on a journey of self discovery and ends up forming a deep and unexpected connection to the students.' You can never have too many movies of this theme. Books-- yes, I do like them-- although I hear they are going out of vogue. When traveling I sometimes use pages for toilet paper (a free little CS tip there for ya).

Music: The lyrics are important-- Leonard Cohen stirs my soul .

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Well, perhaps not the answer one was looking for, but the most amazing thing I've ever done was without a doubt, having a baby. Two to be exact. I did that. Yep. Awesome, awesome experience both times.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can talk to you about social marketing health products in third world countries until you fall into a deeeeeep sleep (which will likely not take long).

Tips, a nice king size bed in a nice large room, private bathroom and a nice meal
