COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My house has always had a revolving door...people have come and gone.,.some stayed on for a while, and others only a night. One young man from Albania adopted me as his new mom and moved in...he is still my son, 10 years later. Most have been friends of friends, or people I had met at different events. A few times i brought home hitch-hikers. I have never couched-surfed using a site, but am looking forward to some new experiences!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I bought 42 acres of cliffs, creeks, caves, springs, and wilderness. I moved my two young sons into a barn while i slowly restored a 200 year old log cabin. I built a stone oven in the side of the hill. Those were the best years of our lives.
