ABOUT ME
I'd hope that friends would say that I'm kind, friendly, and open to new experiences. I love traveling and big part of that is meeting new people and experiencing all that the culture offers. I live with my husband, Gary. Everybody loves him, and I can pretty much guarantee that you will as well.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
We've had great experiences meeting people from all over the world. I love working and travelling abroad, and hosting when I can gives a similar reward.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My top travel memory is riding around Angkor Wat on a ratty old bike, feeling completely free, at ease, but overcome by the beauty of it all.
Teach, Learn, Share
I teach ESL, and have a couple of other part time gigs. I have Masters in International Education and Development. I have a background in analog photography (and a BFA), so I'd be happy to share what I know. I've been meaning to learn to sew for years. I even have a sewing machine that I don't know how to work. I'd also love to refresh my French.
What I Can Share with Hosts
We have one cat (sorry allergic friends).
