CURRENT MISSION

Breeding new varieties of dwarf tomatoes.

ABOUT ME

Mother of 4 grown children, always enjoying hobbies, interested in world cultures since I was very young and at about the age of 10 knew that I wanted to travel. I grew up in a very religious family, but in recent years have completely left this ideology and lifestyle.

PHILOSOPHY

To be at peace with myself, to treat all people, children and animals with dignity, to shun violence. I think that if you have always wanted to do something, then do it and don't put it off any longer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have slept on couches in the UK, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands,Germany, Spain, New Zealand, Honolulu and Switzerland, and made some very good friends!
