I am a single mother of three adult-thinking kids. We live a very modern, simple, quiet life, and we appreciate everyone who comes to our home. We enjoy our ocelot-looking cat called Klaus, and a balance life with outdoors and indoors fun. We like to keep our house clean and welcoming, so they environment always feels like home!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I would like to provide a safe place for those traveling and on a budget. A friend told me about it; her daughter travels the world through this system and I became curious. I also would like to teach my children the importance of connecting with new cultures, new friends, and the importance of sharing.

Interests

I am interested in other cultures, believes, and cuisine. I collect books, stamps and memories, so I'm all about being interested in whatever comes my way.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have an extensive library with all sorts of books. I don't have cable but I have a Hulu membership to catch up on shows. I do own just a few movies, and board games.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteer! It's liberating, and empowering. It makes you feel so full and complete and you cannot stop volunteering unless life comes first.
Share my home with missionaries, traveling and passing by. That felt almost like couch surfing!

Teach, Learn, Share

During a great deal of my past I have learned from experience, and I am willing to share all wisdom obtained. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Lots of stories and wisdom, I talk a lot and that could be negotiable! :) I love to cook so you won't be hungry with us. Also, because I über for a while, I learned a lot about my own city and nearby towns and I am excited to know more places to hang out than any other place I ever lived before.

Countries I’ve Lived In

Ecuador, United States
