Hello! I am new to the CS community. I was born in Detroit and have lived in Washington DC, San Francisco and Paris. I've been back in the Detroit suburbs now for a few years to raise my children. I have lived in Northern Michigan and call Traverse City my second home, Detroit is a diverse city unique and ever changing. Michigan is one of the most beautiful states for outdoor activities!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to get back out in the world after being around home base raising kids...me time!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a House head.. Yup that means I love House music! Any House or Electronic music fans out there...let's connect!

Growing up in Detroit I have a deep connection with soul music, Motown, disco, techno... I love to dance and was an original raver way back ...I love music that gets me up and dancing!

Indy movies, documentary, anything Judd Apatow, musicals, classic movies

20th century literature, children's picture books, Vanity Fair

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seems cliche but it's true....raised intelligent, creative and outgoing kids!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a teacher and specialize in ESL and EFL...

I'd like to meet and interact with liberal, open minded, feminists, creative and arty folks. Age is not an issue for me but do note...I'm over 40 so much of my late night party days are behind me. I do like a fun late night but not looking for 24 hour party people.

I love performing arts and creative expression of all types...I love to dress up..cos-play and hit the night life. But I'm also like peaceful and quiet activities.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a mental and physically healthy woman. I do not smoke or drink. I believe that a persons home is a very personal space and respect boundaries. I hope that someone coming to my home would have courtesy and appreciation of my space as I would to anyone I stay with on my CS journey. Trust is the most important of the human connections.
