CURRENT MISSION

To bring up two children as patiently and joyfully as I know how.

ABOUT ME

I'm 42, British and have been married to my american husband, Jeremy for 12 years. Six years ago we made a trip round the world via Mexico ended up back in England with a new addition to the family. We now have two children and have relocated to Boston, Massachusetts where my husband's family are.

PHILOSOPHY

Why can't we all just get along?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We stayed with a great couple in Virginia who were truly hospitable, we hope to return the favour.

Interests

We talk about travelling a lot and try to figure out how we can include that in our lives when we have two kids. My dream would be to sell up and drive a campervan around the USA, then carry on further afield.. but as yet, I haven't figured out how that would work exactly. In the meantime we plug away in suburbia and try to explore New England when we get a chance. Our kids are "unschooled" at Sudbury Valley School.
