CURRENT MISSION

Love to travel, love to host new friends

ABOUT ME

Retired Career firefighter/paramedic of 33 years. Now executive administrator of a non-profit working collaboratively in rural Honduras. Twenty-five years of hosting "Fresh Air" children from NYC, foreign student workers (J1's) who become part of our extended family, one of the earliest members of the Couchsurfing network. My home is always open to new friends. Active in politics (socialist/democrat) and the anti-war movement politics.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've thoroughly enjoyed hosting scores of amazing folks from all over the world, and have surfed a couple of times myself. I also love to use the groups, it's an amazing resource through CS depending on how you use the opportunities. We have an apartment in Boston and have rented it out to CS'ers from all different countries. They've been wonderful tenants/roomates! Unfortunately, I can't host presently except for occasional "return visits". I split my time between S. Dennis on Cape Cod, Boston (where my husband lives) and am frequently in Honduras. On the Cape I spend half the year in an airstream trailer which (although awesome!) has very limited room.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Enjoyed being a host, and meeting amazing people through the website.. making some new friends who are "near-by" couchsurfers!
