Présentation
À propos de moi
Greetings!
I am curious, relaxed, a life-long learner, and above all else, respectful. I volunteer at our local zoo as a docent and I am delighted to join you if you wish to visit there! I love sharing my love of nature, wildlife, and conservation with anyone who wishes to listen.
I smile more than most people...but have been told it is a welcome characteristic. My love of family, friends, and good-hearted strangers is the force that powers my days. It is important to note on here, that I have Multiple Sclerosis and while I would love hiking or climbing or any physical activity - I can only do so in short spurts. About a mile at a time is usually all my legs will allow. Please do not feel sorry for me. I am so happy that I get that mile - and a quick break later - maybe another one. So many people with MS are in chairs or use walkers. I am lucky..but also strategic and steadfast in my treatments. You might meet me with a cane, but please do not feel bad for me. I am happy.
My travel partner for life is my husband, Jake: Jake is a mathematics professor who also has a passion for spreading knowledge to future generations. He is also a fiber artist specializing in crochet.
Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
I was previously on Couchsurfing but many years have passed and I do not think that account is active anymore. During that time I loved meeting new people that came to visit my city but never went anywhere. Now that I'm able to actually travel I'm excited to see how this community works in both directions. If you plan to request a stay with us, please make sure to include two things: my husband's favorite type of music and the name of at least one of our cats.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres
My field of interest is vast. That said, I recently, after years of contemplation, decided that Breaking Bad is the best TV show ever made. This is a statement of its quality and not even a hint as to what my _favorite_ would be. Top of my head, instant response: The Beatles, epic movies, and philosophy. Jake likes Hungarian pop a lot and I enjoy it when he is playing it. Also, if you ask him what music I like he would tell you showtunes. I don't disagree, but I think it is due to the orchestration.
Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue
One. Amazing. Thing. I've. Done. Something I did that was amazing.
I am of the philosophy that I can change the world "one starfish at a time." Maybe I have done something amazing, but I don't know if I will ever know about it.
My husband and I made the decision not to have children, and so I treat everyone as my child. Perhaps I did something with amazing ramifications for one of them? IDK.
Enseignez, apprenez, partagez
I would be thrilled to have you join me at the zoo to walk around and meet all of our inhabitants! I can't take you backstage, but I can tell you all about the critters that live at our zoo.
Louisville also has a dynamic brewery scene! We will happily tag along as you explore!
Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes
I will always leave my environment better than I found it. If your home is impeccable then I hope that I can at least leave some good energy and fond memories for you. I am also a storyteller. It comes from generations of tradition in rural Kentucky.
