CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life in this corner of Mexico and travel as much as possible.

ABOUT ME

My husband and I retired to Mexico in 1993, lived in Paamul and Puerto Aventuras, Quintana Roo for 14 years. Did a lot of scuba diving, made a lot of friends. Moved to Coatepec, Veracruz in 2007.

John passed away June 30, 2012. I have moved since then, and welcome Couchsurfers to my new home. If you are interested in coffee, orchids or the Anthropology Museum in Xalapa, come see me.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting new people, and while I don't get around much anymore, I can still entertain guests and give them a comfortable place to stay.

音乐、电影和书籍

I started an English book exchange in Coatepec in 2009 in order to satisfy our reading needs, and it is flourishing. If you have a book to trade, or just want to read, this is the place. The book exchange has both English and Spanish books now.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I have been to Lalibela in Ethiopia to see the churches carved into the rock.

教，学，和分享

I am teaching variations on crochet using recycled materials--mostly plastic bags and old tee shirts. Also teach weaving, knitting, other "manualidades."

I am trying to improve my Spanish, but despair of ever becoming fluent.
