ABOUT ME

Growing old is necessary, growing up is optional.

I'm a glass blower and a sculptural artist.

I love the concept of CS because the best part about traveling is meeting the local people! I love that hole-in-the-wall restraunt or bar you would never have found with out help!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To travel and meet other traveler friendly people. There's nothing that will spread understanding and unity like sharing your home with travelers.

Interests

I enjoy knitting, wine, reading, coffee, and good coversation.

Board games and card games are one of my favorite past times (Settlers of Catan, and Hearts are my favorite). I'm always down for a hike or a walk around new locations.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think I'm still doing my amazing thing! I'm currently in a (verry slow race) to see who is the first of my friends to get to Antarctica. For me it's the only continent I have yet to see.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer a fun game night, and baking recipes galore (specifically strawberry rhubarb pie)

As a host, my house is a 10 min walk from the Museum of Glass, and downtown Corning's Market Street.
