About Me

I am a recent widow, creating the next chapter of my life after 17 wonderful years of marriage to my only husband, an aerospace scientist. I have lived in Spain, Mexico, 6 months in Japan and one year in France ( Paris), mostly for musical reasons.
Now, I still play and just returned from Korea where I played cello in the international Community Orchestra in Seoul. What a wonderful adventure that was!
Now I do use Airbnb to create extra income with various rentals here but am open to couch surfers too...
I enjoy all the arts but not so much much hard rock n Roll ...
