About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I have a serious case of wanderlust.

ABOUT ME

Would like to travel to foreign countries when time and money permit. Haven't been outside the U.S. I like meeting new people, dancing, cooking, art--I'm currently taking classes in drawing and oil painting. Love exploring hiking and biking trails, gardening, picnics in the park, the zoo, the public library, wine and cheese gatherings with friends, coffee shops, sewing, interior decorating. Love rum and chocolate.

PHILOSOPHY

Being smart in life requires more than a high IQ. A more reliable indicator of your happiness potential is your EQ--the measure of your emotional depth and dexterity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to offer my couch (when available) to promote the exchange of cultural differences and meet people from all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to this concept, and would be glad to share stories in the future.

Interests

I'm interested in people and learning about their cultures, food, customs, etc. I love to write, and experience the challenge of adventure. I enjoy the beach, swimming and reading.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love songs from Broadway, cabaret and know the lyrics to hundreds of songs written before I was born.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The lift-off of the space shuttle at Cape Kennedy in Florida. Amazing!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I've raised 3 sons, which was a learning experience in itself. They are grown now and I have a lot of life experiences to share with others.
