About Me

Love to travel. Lived in and love Spain and Israel and the Middle East. Embrace different cultures, cuisines, music and languages. Love bike riding, hiking, swimming, touring and meeting people. It’s a small world after all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Can’t get enough! Always love making new life time friends and long having exciting conversations over coffee, or on a walk or eating a meal....love hearing about their lives, joys, hopes and dreams. Love asking questions and sharing my story and I always learn from everyone I meet and we part having enjoyed each other’s company.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived and worked in Israel, Spain and Iraq

Teach, Learn, Share

I can Teach English, Spanish and learned a little Arabic

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my attentive listening ears to hear and learn all about their lives and sharing and comparing our separate life experiences and what we have learned from life, what we are and have been able to do to make this world a better place and others around us whether we are living in different cultures from our own or living in the same place all the time. It’s all about finding the many similarities in our life, all over a pot of hot coffee or a bottle of wine with cheese and crackers, sitting in the living room or out on a walk or cooking up a pot of soup. The joy to share is the joy of life.
