Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Interests

I enjoy a good cup of coffee, tea or glass wine to go with good conversation. When I'm on my own, I love reading, surfing the web, taking free university courses and knitting. I love cooking for my family and friends...I love my helpers for cleaning up! ;-)
