CURRENT MISSION

to surround myself with good friends and family

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty easygoing. I like good conversation. As my cousin says, women in my family have the gift of gab. Although, comparatively, I'm the quiet one.

PHILOSOPHY

"Where there is love there is life." - Mahatma Ghandi.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My family had 13 or so exchange students stay at my home during the time I was in high school. The experience helped me to foster an appreciation for different cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently reading . . .The Shelters of Stone by Jean Auel, from the Earth's Children series.

TV: The Hills, The Bachelor, Grey's Anatomy, American Idol, Dancing with the Stars
