Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted a few couch surfers in our RV on our property in SW Austin, TX. We also currently have been hosting wwoofers who want to come out and learn how to keep bees with us! My husband Chuck is retired now and we want to start traveling! I hope to go and visit every country in the world! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a few couch surfers, wwoofers, have hosted 7 different foreign exchange students, and have traveled extensively, but plan to keep traveling whenever possible!

Interests

Geocaching, hiking, reading, computers, (i am a total electronics geek) learning, gorillas, photography, soccer, volley ball, travel, meeting people from other countries, dancing (all kinds, ballroom, c&w, salsa, square dance, etc) I am a beekeeper, too!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been skydiving 3 times! I wrote a book that came out in March 2017 called Beginning Beekeeping! :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I know MY CITY Austin TX, like the back of my hand! From food to fun, I can hook you up! (though unfortunately I will admit, that I don't go out much on 6th street any more, too crowded for my tastes. I also know a lot of cities around the usa, since I do gps navigation for a job and design urban adventure tours.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Culture, English language practice, funny stories, love to play board games, card games, dominoes, etc. We travel with HONEY and MEADE that we make from our bees! :)
