I am a physical therapist for the elderly population and love the stories they have to tell. I am married and have an Australian Kelpie dog named Mika.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that life is a lot more interesting when you embrace other people and their experiences therefore couch surfing is a great way to meet people whether it is on our own travels or hosting here at home.

Interests

My husband and I love to go hiking, backpacking, canoeing/kayaking, biking, Frisbee golfing, playing tennis, basically anything outdoors. We also love traveling and going to music festivals- especially for folk/Americana/bluegrass bands. We love meeting new people, brewing beer, and are fans of whiskey.
