Recently “retired” from the UN to become a full-time writer. Was living in Somalia and decided to move somewhere peaceful, so picked Ukraine…Now I just travel. My languages=American, a bit of Thai and some English . Trying to learn more Spanish and Ukrainian.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Wish I could host more, but never had roommates open to the idea. Would love to meet travelers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My only time crashing with someone was in Egypt. The guy lived on the top floor of an old high-rise over looking Cairo. Awesome experience.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I write professionally and love teaching the art to others. Also, strangely enough, I very much enjoy editing papers. If anyone wants some writing lessons or needs an important document edited, I would be pleased to help.
