I love long walks by the sea and the scent of eucalyptus. I yearn for adventure and one unfulfilled dream is the French Riviera. I am reading my pretty Blue French mystery right now and counting down the days. I simply need to roam the world.

I am thinking of the Dolomites and planning to roam the mountains in the chill of fall.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have prepared couchsurfing trips for friends and I know shared experience surpasses all else. Sometimes one has time, sometimes opportunity, but what one really requires is the right place with the right people.

Interests

I merely want to see and enjoy the world.
I would love to exchange petsitting and tutoring English for opportunities to travel and stay in Europe.
