Why I'm on Couchsurfing
As I lived abroad all over the world over the last 20 years - South Africa, Europe, Latin America and Asia-Pacific - I want to return the favour to those who want to visit the United States - especially the mountains of Western North Carolina.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I broke my neck twice when I was a teenager but it makes me a great listener. Even if you are boring during a conversation I cannot look away. And now it makes me a fantastic dancer - my body moves but my head stays still.
