I am a retired Army Nurse and have a house with spare rooms. I love people and am happy to talk with many.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of my students recommended this program to me. I have hosted graduate students for the past 20+ years during their clinical rotation in my area. I am from a huge family (more like a clan), and we stay with each other all over. I love this idea.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have traveled the world. I have spent 25years in the Army. I have been to survival training (Outward Bound - 1971). I have climbed cliffs, rappelled, back down, canoed and portaged through the Canadian boundary waters, survived a train wreck, done some mission work in Kenya, delivered over 5,000 babies and been married and raised children.
