CURRENT MISSION

To host people from all over the world and to learn as much as I can from those visitors. I also want to travel as long as I can...and to enjoy the wonders of the world we all share!

ABOUT ME

I have a severe case of wanderlust and dream of travel, adventure and finding my place in this world. I love to cook, entertain, share ideas, laugh and find joy in life's simple pleasures.
I love to travel alone or with friends or my two grown children. The more the merrier.

PHILOSOPHY

To scatter joy wherever I go. To share my blessings. To enjoy the wonders of this world. To experience as many cultures as I can...To LIVE!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have had the joy of being in the delivery room for the birth of healthy, naturally conceived Amish quadruplets. A miracle. I have also been honored to have been in the operating room for the "harvesting" of a deceased person's organs so that many other people would have a chance to live as a result of this man's generosity.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach English as a second language. Literacy is something that is very important to me. I can be a "nanny" for your kids, a cat/dog/fish sitter, I'm a great cook and baker. I love to just be a collaborator. I can use a hammer, cuisinart, climb ladders, create ad campaigns, write stories/blogs/travelogues, I've been involved in English language immersion. Just ask me, I'll try it!
