I love traveling. First and foremost! I am currently living out of my VW westfalia, and loving it! I do own a home, but am renting it out.

Right up there with travelling would be dancing!

I have 4 kids, 5 grandkids, and like to spend time with them when I'm not travelling.

I am a free spirit. Love reading and walking. I keep good care of my health so eat good wholesome foods. ( most of the time!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm couch surfing because I like to meet the locals . I don't do all inclusives, as I find them very generic. You could be any place in the world and they are all similar.

Plus the free accommodations are always nice! Makes travelling a lot more freeing without exorbitant hotel bills!

People I have stayed with tell me I'm an easy keeper. Clean up after myself. Don't need any attention. Just a place to stay so I can enjoy the place I'm visiting

Music, Movies, and Books

Favourite music, jazz and blues. And the good old rock and roll of the 70's

Favourite book The Geen Mile by Stephen King. Also like James Patterson and Dianne Chamberlain's work.

Self help when I need it. Spiritual.

Don't watch a lot of TV, so no favourite movies to speak of. Loved Sound of Music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteered at a cheetah refuge and helped heal injured cheetahs!

And lived with my mom in her last years to caregive for her so she didn't have to leave her home.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my experiences of travel. Listen. Laugh . Enjoy your company.

I have listed some of the countries I've visited, but not all. The list is extensive. Most of Europe, a lot of the United States.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I usually like to cook a meal for my host. If they want something that.
