CURRENT MISSION

Moving to Maui to get a spa management job and teach!

ABOUT ME

I love outdoor activities-hiking, biking, skiing or just looking at the flowers and nature.
Belong to a book group and in addition probably read about 4-6 books a month.
Enjoy good food and drink, especially ethnic food and nice red wines. Prefer martinis and high quality tequila!
Thrive on new adventures, exploration and meeting new people.

I am told I have a calming presence, look 10 years younger than I am and easy to be around. Make a great house guest as I like to cook, garden and clean!

PHILOSOPHY

Be here now and be grateful for all I have in my life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a brand new member and joined because my friend Jackie has met some great people through CS2. Her son has travelled in Europe through this.

I am moving to Maui in mid February and hope to find a place to crash while I look for a job and place to live.
