CURRENT MISSION

I want to meet others in the world. Right now I want to meet people in Norway as I travel with my 88 year old Mom to see where our family lived before they came to the USA in the late 1800s.

ABOUT ME

I'm older than my children, but still younger than dirt. I like music, art, learning about new things, and people.

PHILOSOPHY

Life without humor is a joke waiting to happen. I want to leave the Earth a better than when I arrived.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Music, Movies, and Books

Love science fiction, its my favorite guilty pleasure in literature (I read almost any type of book except romance and horror). Last movie seen- Waitress. Listen to jazz A LOT!! I do love all sorts of music except for Rap.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled to Switzerland the summer of 1970 to participate in the first International Festival of Youth Orchestras. It was terrific traveling around the country giving concerts and then meeting in St. Moritz for two weeks meeting other people from all over the world and participating a big festival concert with kids from all the orchestras.
