About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I love to travel and I love meeting people. As a single person, I would love to meet people on my travels and get to know the location through someone who knows something about the locale.

ABOUT ME

Warm, quick mind, talkative, funny (sometimes,) lots of interests - I love to read, go to movies & theater, listen to music of all kinds and much more! I have 3 grown sons and 7 grandchildren who I adore.

PHILOSOPHY

I am open minded, progressive, and love getting to know people and how each person thinks and arrives at his/her decisions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am looking for fun people to meet and possibly stay with on my travels as well as host people when possible.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Starting my CouchSurfing Experience Summer of 2012. I have been fortunate to have friends all over the US so on "national" travel trips I have always been able to stay with someone either in a lovely guest room in some beautiful homes or on a sofa in the living room or den.

Interests

Stories of people, humor, babies & children. I am fascinated with genealogy and family history, especially love historical fiction, films, plays, dance, music... I love to knit and crochet, current events, and even reality TV!
