CURRENT MISSION

To go to or meet someone from every place/country on earth!

ABOUT ME

After spending 3 yrs in eastern Europe (Moldova) as a Peace Corps Volunteer, I made a mid-life career change from software (testing, account mgmt, corporate training) and teaching (ESL, EFL) into medicine (osteopathy). So I’ve spent the last 6 yrs getting into and through medical school. Now I’m done, woohoo!!! I‘m looking forward to spending time with people again. And fellow travelers are the best people! :-)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met lots of great people who have couchsurfed on my friends couches, and who have hosted me on their couches. Both the hosts and the CS'ers have all been great people, so I'm excited to have my very own CS-ers and show them around my town!
