I've been a school teacher all my life living in a few countries and traveling to many. I'm also conversational in Czech, Italian and Mandarin.
I'm a single mother of a 13-year-old boy and 11-year-old girl. We have lots of fun traveling the world together. We most recently lived in Shenzhen, China for 6 years and my kids are fluent in Mandarin. We also lived in Indonesia for 3 years. We just moved to Chiang Mai, Thailand in July 2018 for our next adventure. We have a wonderful labrador puppy.
I don't drink or smoke and live a life of yoga practice and Reiki Tummo practice. I love to read and try new things.
I travel "home" to the US every July.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet like-minded people. To help out people on a budget by offering my home, if we are comfortable with it, because I used to be on a tight budget as a young traveling student and know what it's like!
