I have two daughters and 2 grandbabies. I work and write and travel and garden and love to be outdoors. Once upon a time I was a home birth midwife and for the past 24 years I have been a massage therapist. My husband is a painter and tattoo artist. We have a great house although it’s not in the greatest location. We are on a busy street but the back yard is lovely with chickens and a garden. There’s a bus stop nearby.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see the places I visit through the eyes of the people who live there rather than the tour books and I want to support others in their travels.
