I have traveled all over the world and was fortunate enough to live in Tehran
in the late '60's when conditions for Americans were ideal. I went to college in Beirut.
I settled many years ago in South Florida to raise my family. I have three grown sons (one local, one in Boulder and one in Brooklyn).
I live with my aging Pug, Biggie Smalls, and my Siberian Cat, Sasha.
I have a home that could accommodate two travelers (willing to share the same
queen sized bed), as well as a couch, suitable for sleeping. I am happy to offer my home to people traveling.
I still have a job, so cannot offer much time or rides for sightseeing. Unfortunately, I do not live near public transportation, although I am just a short bike ride (3+ miles) from the beach.
