I am a wife and mom of 5. I love to travel and meet different people from places that are new to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to expose my children and my family to other cultures and languages. I think inviting people into my home is an exciting way to do that.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love finding new music, I currently have 2 teenagers who keep me up to date on what's cool. I really love something about all musical genres.
Favorite movies: The Red Violin, The Big Lebowski, Austenland, Coraline, Tangled, The Matrix, and anything Agatha Christie!
My favorite book ever is Les Miserables. I also love to read murder mysteries and any history or historical fiction. Anything Jane Austen, Charles Dickens or Agatha Christie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm not sure anything I've done could be classified as "amazing". :) Some of my proudest accomplishments are being happily married for 20 years and 5 babies (ages 8-17) that make me incredibly happy.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Our home is kind of crazy with 7 of us, but we have a ton of fun. We love to show people unique things about where we live. We've had exchange students in the past and have loved every minute of it. We would also love to help anyone who needs it work on their English language skills. When I was learning French, I found it was so much easier to talk to children than adults. We have lots of kids here to practice with. ;)
