CURRENT MISSION

To spread peace throughout the world...

ABOUT ME

I would like to open my home to travellers like myself, who want to see the real side of the place they are visiting. I have never been a very good tourist, I sometimes forget to see the attractions because I get caught up in getting to know the people who actually live there. I will be travelling with my 18 year old daughter this year, so it will be different, but with the same goals (maybe slightly more tourist attractions).
I hope to meet new friends both here and on our trip to Ireland this winter.

PHILOSOPHY

I am very liberal and open to many different thoughts, ways of living, believing. I believe that yoga and meditation is a big part of living in peace with myself and the world. I don't have this life and my place in it all figured out, but I think that is the beauty of this life as a journey.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to this site, but have made some great friends travelling in Europe, and stayed on many hospitable couches.

Interests

I love to cook, and trying new foods. I keep a very pretty perennial garden, and have just started a vegetable garden (in a community garden). I play classical flute, especially love chamber music. My daughter plays violin, eukele and guitar.

Love movies and diverse kinds of music. Writers I love: Milan Kundera, Alice Hoffman, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Tolken, Jane Austen, Ernest Hemingway, many, many more. Midnight in Paris!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in England and Holland for a year. It was an amazing time, to step outside of all that was familiar and easy.

I can cook for you, play music with you, practice yoga, or just hang out and chat.
