CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life and all it offers with humor and curiosity....NOW I am planning a short trip to France.
Will spend a week in Paris...looking to meet a curious person and learn more about Paris, which I have visited before.

ABOUT ME
I am a curious, active person, and I have ALWAYS wanted to travel, and now I'm enjoying doing as much travelling as I can. I often do house swaps, but am really interested in meeting more people through Couchsurfing. I met some delightful people in my travels... and this are people I now consider friends!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm an enthusiastic person, and cliche though it is, I do think the glass is "half full". I enjoy meeting new people and learning about them and their culture.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In May 2014, I returned from ten months living in Europe(mostly France), but I am back in the Boston area, so I can meet people for coffee, lunch, or to tour the city. During that time I met at least nine couch surfers( for surfing or just meeting for lunch or touring), and each experience was unique and made my trip much more special!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I LOVE couch surfing! See my January 7, 2011, blog "And Then There is Couch Surfing!" at http://AtoZofVacationHomeExchange.blogspot.com

Couch surfers are generous and gracious people who have opened their homes to me!

兴趣

Working out, pottery, travel, gardening, reading, swimming, spending time with friends and family, etc.

音乐、电影和书籍

I love to read-mostly novels. I enjoy finding authors I've never heard of before and reading their books. I happened upon Nicholas DelBlanco's travel book about France and am enjoying his novels as well. I like most movies, but nothing violent.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I really love the wonders of nature...places like Macchu Picchu and Yosemite are pretty spectacular sights, for example. And, oh yes, I'm still amazed that I can get in an airplane and be in another continent in just hours!

教，学，和分享

I'm a former English teacher, so it would be fun to learn new languages and share my knowledge of English. I speak some French, and very little Spanish and even less Italian.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I love talking about our cultures and experiences to learn more about other countries.
