About Me

Single mom, workaholic, DIY aficionado, interior design OCD, and now aspiring gardener.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Our main goal is to meet nice people and to speak more English around the house.

We've been hosting since Jan 2015, and so far we have only had wonderful experiences. Can't wait to see who visits us next!

NOTE: my son grew up and he now owns the room we used to host couchsurfers. We are planning a house expansion, though, so hopefully we'll be able to host again soon!

Interests

Post-modernist literature, food of all kinds, arts and crafts, vegetable gardening.
I also *love* cooking, and I hoard spices and spice jars.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't even know where to start.

I recently watched Hidden Figures, Get Out and Moonlight, and I loved them all.

Currently re-reading Richard Brautigan.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I made a fully-functioning human out of edamame beans and chocolate sundaes. How cool is that?
