CURRENT MISSION

To live happy

ABOUT ME

I'm a fun, positive person who appreciates good company, and I try to learn new things every day. I support and participate in the arts and humanities (music, performance arts, painting, sculpture, photography, etc.). My eyes are multi-colored. (They are mostly green, but gold around the pupils.) My friends get frustrated with me because I rarely see mainstream movies. I like the indie and foreign stuff better. I also make playlists for my friends and Spotify followers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before I knew about CouchSurfing, I was already sharing my apartment with bands who needed a place to stay.
I also stayed in private homes while traveling Europe and it is the best way to learn how the locals really live.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-I flew a Cessna plane once, under guided direction. I was seated in the left pilot's seat, and the Pilot/Teacher was in the right pilot's seat. He directed me through every detail (pull this, do that, push that) allowing me to have hands-on experience the entire flight and landing...and it was AMAZING.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you almost anything you want to know about Microsoft Excel.
OK, I know lots of other things, too, but somehow I become the "Excel Guru" wherever I go.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some treats from Texas! (Please forget any stereotypes about cowboys and bullets...I'm not that kind of Texan.)
