ABOUT ME

People are people. The more I get to know them, the more I like them. Variety is the spice of life. I enjoy good conversation and good game of Dominoes, Cribbage , Uno and more. Spanish and swimming are my favorite pastimes! Let's talk travel!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to stay at home watchng TV. People are far more interesting! You can learn so much through conversations with people! I live life to the fullest. I am not shy or afraid of new experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined in 2009 while in Chile and had a very positive experience visiting over dinner with a Chileno family here in Vina del Mar.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Beginner. I hope to be very active! I met a wonderful, young German girl who introduced me to this site and helped me meet my first family in Chile! While dining at their house, a couple from Russia called and joined us spontaneously for dinner!
What a wonderful experience we had!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I swam in the Gulf of Mexico, turned around and saw three dolphin swimming toward me! Awesome! I swam in the 'World's Largest Swimming Pool' in Algorobbo, Chile! I've met and made friends with people in many different parts of the world. I love to stay connected!

I have experience as a teacher of Spanish and English as a second language. I am a great swim teacher and have a park model trailer at a campground in the country. Chicago is a great city and I love giving tours!
