100% new couch surfer. I am a medically retired Navy gal.... currently living abroad and loving it... diverse in many ways.... and a tough nut to crack. I like riding my Harley on beautiful days... I'm a former competitive ballroom dancer... and I'm a full-time fitness instructor.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To find more affordable and pleasant ways to travel, especially as I visit all the places I've called home through the years. Hotel rooms are good for the 24hr access without disturbing anyone... airbnb is great for the personal touch... couch-surfing appears to be a pretty good blend of the two. We'll see!

Music, Movies, and Books

Techno, dance, rock, standards, torch, and more... any books, since I'm a voracious reader... and movies, well, just no scary ones after dark.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A tie between the seeing the ruins at Ephesus, and the sights, smells, tastes, and tactile wonders of Jerusalem.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach just about anything I know, so feel free to make me sing for my supper!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A world of experiences, sea stories, all true, most stranger than fiction, and some hugely inappropriate.
