Présentation
À propos de moi
CURRENT MISSION
To be.
ABOUT ME
To be brief: I'm quiet, but I love everything. I write; poetry and short stories, and I'm trying to write a novel. I'm a former English teacher who has taught in New York City and the United Arab Emirates, as well as a mentor in Lancaster, PA. After a hiatus from couchsurfing I'm interested in exploring the world again!
PHILOSOPHY
Kindness to others, and empathy for them, is the least we can offer the world.
Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I mainly mooch. I lived in Pittsburgh, and nobody wants to go to Pittsburgh! So instead I took advantage of generous hosts in far more interesting locales.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Stayed with a couple folks in Portland when I was hitch-hiking and was desperately in need of a place to stay (nights can get cold in the Northwest, even in summertime it seems...). Also stayed with a wonderful young lady in Kyoto, she was Lithuanian and spoke beautiful English.

Esoteric knowledge. Well how about "he who does not speak is wise"? Which would mean anything I say here will be essentially unwise.
