I live at, and own, Neverland farm. Google it. Many international people come and stay with me, over the past 15 years it's more than 2-3000.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't travel much, the life of a country midwife doesn't give me much money. And when I do travel I prefer to stay with people and get to know them. It's more important to me the people when I travel than the place.

Interests

Cooking, eating! I love books and reading, I write some. I'm just starting to ride a bicycle! And I love it!

Music, Movies, and Books

Umberto Eco and Isaac Asimov are my favorite authors. I also love Tolkien. I love all music, and keep a room full of instruments I don't play in case musicians come!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved to Ecuador and become a farmer! Whitewater rafted the Gauley River, guided it. Vertical caving! And hiking the Andes mountains delivering babies in remote remote locations...

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach organic farming and sustainable community living. I am a mountain midwife in the Andes. And I have a big farm where we host international travelers all the time!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I cook, and more, I clean! I actually like scrubbing bathrooms. Except my own. I'm normally a neat person, and I can easily be left alone. I love exchanging travel stories!
