I retired in 2010 from a counseling/social work profession, and now am living in Okolona, Mississippi as my parents are aging and need closer family attention. I traveled all last winter in south Florida, tent-camping. Had a marvelous time, avoiding the cold of winter in the sunny and exotic Everglades. This winter I will be staying close to home. I have two dogs, a 26 year old son who lives in Ohio, and am divorced. I am traveling to Nashville in the middle of September to undergo hypnotherapy for past life regression. I shall be in Nashville September 16 and will need a couch for that night as my session is on Thursday, the 17th.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To provide assistance to travelers, and receive same assistance should I need it.
