I am returning to Norway for the first time since I used to nanny there in my twenties. This is my first solo trip out of the country since I was 25 years old when I backpacked Europe for several years. I have now had four children and two grandchildren.

I am independent, enjoy reading, swimming, learning about your culture and I am very self-sufficient. I love nature, I love to go to bed early-wake up early and explore. I am Christian and my faith is important to me.

(I am not so computer literate, so my daughter Anna helps me with this www.couchsurfing.com/crazyintherain)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to stay with you on my visit to Norway and learn more about the culture as Norway is where my father grew up.
