CURRENT MISSION
So I didn't learn trapeze but I did get a tightrope (repair, in my ankle).

ABOUT ME

Raised a lot of kids, so learned to be flexible and quick on my feet. I am a good cook and most U.S. restaurants leave me disappointed. I like to go on walks, try desperately to dance, and like to think that I could paint and draw.

PHILOSOPHY

Make heaven on earth.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Check in when I can. My couches are sometimes available. We downsized from the grand old 1890 Victorian home, and now we're in a 1949 home a little further from city center. We still have 2 adult children at home and sometmes do have lines for the bathroom.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I was 11, my father took me to Europe for 3 weeks. In Grenoble, we met a young man biking across Europe. My father invited him to come back to our apartment to have a shower, a hot meal and sleep on the couch that night. I don't even remember his name, but I have a photo with him.

Since then, I have invited people to surf on over to my parents' house or mine. We have hosted a family that records conventions and goes city to city. A family moving from SC to CA- with 6 children and a uHaul. People who were travelling the US to visit every state, in a 5th Wheel. Families moving from WA to GA and from GA to WA (a week apart from each other Haha). And a farmer and his wife who just wanted to come to the big city for a weekend off.

Personally I have couch surfed while traveling in D.C., PA, KY, CA, WA, OR.

Interesses

I will stop to look at architecture, art. I like color and line. I do a little something every day to improve my surroundings or read to improve my mind and develop my thoughts. I also like to clean. I prefer to clean other's homes, strangely enough.
