I'm a registered nurse who has been recently laid off. This summer I'm taking classes and plan to travel before returning to school.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A few years ago I drove cross country from NM to PA and I used Couchsurfing to stay a night in Memphis, TN. It was a beautiful experience and my host was amazing. I'd like to try Couchsurfing in places other than the US.

Interests

Conversation over coffee or vegetarian foods is high on the list of things I like to do!

I love bicycles, kayaking, and hiking. Plants, animals, and books.

Music, Movies, and Books

100 Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez is my favorite book, reread many times over the course of many years and it still holds up. Enjoy fiction and non-fiction, classics, and adventure survival stories.
