About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Write a book series about my travels! 1st series - Indonesia!

ABOUT ME

Hello, I am very low key. I get along very easy with people. I love gardening. I have vegetable garden at home and in my office. I am self employed starting July 2018. I am a very hard working person but a little shy. I am married with my hubby since 2017 but we have been together for 13 years. I love traveling, seeing new places and meeting people of different background. Meeting people and creating friendships is key to a successful adventure! I love small old towns the best. I love food and learning to cook native food from different countries. Teach me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a way to make friendships around the world. I don’t just want to see the beautiful views! I also want to connect with people and learn from them.

Interests

In my free time, I would love to maintain my vegetable garden. I don't like gym but I make myself go. I love to cook and bake for my friends. Hosting my friends and family over for dinner is one of my favorite things to do. I love taking pictures and one day when I am not busy with work I can sort them and write a book about my travels.

Music, Movies, and Books

70’s classic rock, adult alternative, some Jazz. I love movies! Mostly I would see a chick flick movie first then I would watch sci-fi if nothing else. Books many! I would go over them later and post them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can’t point one amazing thing I have done. I believe I have done many amazing things and it’s hard to point to only one. :-)

Teach, Learn, Share

I like teaching basic accounting to small business owners. I would love to teach English to immigrants that can’t speak English. I want to learn another language like French! Or German!
Share: I am open to sharing knowledge I have if you want to learn what I know. LOL

What I Can Share with Hosts

Practice English with them. I can cook or bake. :)
