ABOUT ME

Love seeing what's coming around the next corner. Just returned from a great trip to Baja. I fuse glass as a hobby. Bellingham has many great day trips within reach-Vancouver, Seattle, the San Juan Islands and Mt Baker to name a few. I have lived here for 30 years and love sharing why I am still in love with the area. I'm still discovering new places. I have camped, hiked, sailed and photographed much of this beautiful corner of the country.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm left leaning, agnostic, a pacifist. Like Ghandi I believe "You must become the change you want to see in the world." I have spent most of my life working with homelessness, domestic violence, and teaching preschoolers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to this but excited. I live 15 miles outside of town. My home is small but has a great view of Hale's Passage and Lummi Island. I have a fold out couch-queen size or a spare bedroom with a single bed. You are more than welcome to use the kitchen as long as you provide the food and clean up after yourself. There is no smoking inside
