CURRENT MISSION

To boldly go ...

ABOUT ME

My children have all grown up and now its time for me, I'm a student at the moment and looking for some new experiences in life. I love meeting new people and sharing in the richness of their lives.

PHILOSOPHY

To keep an open mind and never stop learning. When you encounter a wall, tell youself. "Since there is a wall here, a wide, open expanse must lie on the other side." A wall is an obstacle, but each obstacle we meet is proof of the progress we have made so far.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can only offer a place to stay during the summer months. I have couches but they are a bit small for tall people, also have a double airbed that can go on the floor. I enjoy cooking and good converstion with my guests. I am from a farming background and have always lived in the area, I know the hills and trails pretty well and love showing people around. I have not yet done any surfing but intend to change that soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted some wonderfully diverse and interesting people but no surfing experience as yet - experiences are up an coming.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Flying, as in paragliding, being up there getting like a bird, that was the most exhilarating experience I've ever had!

I find thunder storms pretty exhilarating too, I remember being in the middle of one with lightening hitting the ground all around me - wow!
