I'm just about to have an empty nest after raising two kids, so reinventing myself once again. Married and looking for new friends and great conversations. Please tell me about you. Honest, opinionated, and open to learning. Like to dance, but currently rusty. Hiking, gardening, cycling, lifting weights are current physical activities.

Eclectic education (Anthropology and Environmental Science) and interests. Always developing new ones. Currently fascinated by Genealogy as a way to inform travel.

Good food is very welcome, so if you have recommendations please let me know.

Light drinker and don't smoke, am considerate of others' space and things. Value clear communication.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Finding an "in" to each place...a way to get closer to the area, the people, and the experience of living there.
All about adventure and continuing to learn. Really like to spend time in places I've never been before, do things I've never tried, and experience new ways of seeing the world.

Meeting new people, potential friends, and travel buddies.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Just one? I've done archaeology in Incan and Cherokee burial grounds, climbed ancient temples in Indonesia and throughout Latin America, landed on an Alaskan glacier in a helicopter, hiked in Crete and the Cascade Mountains, swum with turtles and sharks, galloped the Carribbean surf on an Arabian, and raised 2 children. Can't wait for the next thing!

教，学，和分享

Providing knowledge about different regions of the U. S. I've lived in 13 states, including Alaska and Hawaii, and have seen all states but 4. Can share my experiences in other countries, as a woman, mother, and scientist.

Want to learn about the history, ecology, culture, language, and people of every place I visit.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can help with Spanish, English, share food and petrol, and organize nearly anything. Super planner, researcher, but just okay at teaching.
