I want you to be happy ... to laugh, smile and rejoice in order that others may be made happy by you. -'Abdu'l-Bahá
ABOUT ME
I live in Hamilton, Ontario. I enjoy travelling and hosting and meeting new people. I find that meeting and talking with the local people is a great way to get to know a place.
I find that people all over the world are, for the most part, very friendly. The world is an interesting place and getting to know people, not just the sights, makes it even more interesting. My husband, Hans, and I enjoyed our couchsurfing experiences and have some wonderful memories. Hans passed away 3 years ago.
PHILOSOPHY
Treat others as you would want them to treat you. Do my utmost to promote unity in the world and to make the world a better place.
The world is safer and kinder when we are led to trust and share
