CURRENT MISSION

Strangers are simply friends I haven't yet met.

ABOUT ME

I live in a remote southwestern NY town with my husband Tom along with a few horses, dogs and cats. Our five children are out in the world creating their wonderful futures. Our oldest daughter has blessed us with our first grandchild. Tom and I love to travel, but more often we find plenty to do right here at home.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that we can conquer any hardship, cure any heartache and relieve any pain with a lot of patience and concentrated love! It also doesn't hurt to roll up your sleeves and get to work. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had the chance to surf with a couple of friends, and it was a great experience. Although we're not quite ready to host anyone in our own home, Tom and I will likely try this again when we venture out of our cozy cabin.

Interests

I love to ride my horses with my husband, read a good book in the winter while I'm curled up with a glass of wine or cup of tea, write music and other things that intrigue me, practice yoga with my friends, act in our local theater, sing at open mic night, listen to great music, and support our local artisans.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I watched my daughter give birth to her daughter. I have an incredible amount of respect and profound sense of awe for all women, and my own daughter in particular.
