I am a homeschooling mom of 9 (traveling with 7). We are on a year long sabbatical journey to see most of the United States (and a little of Mexico and Canada). My husband is occasionally able to join us. We love to explore the outdoors and are always looking for new things to see and do.

Skills & Expertise to Share

I can offer encouragement! I love to get to know new people and encourage them on their journey. I love to exchange ideas about history, science, plants, herbs, health, education/homeschooling, women's health and other topics relevant to my lifestyle. I am fairly handy and do light building. The children and I love to lend a hand in farm chores, gardening or harvesting.

We had a very nice stay at Rcrosswell in the beautiful Virginia mountains. Ruth and her family were so friendly and inviting. We enjoyed sharing experiences. We were able to park beside their pond and being put to sleep to the sounds of crickets and soothing water. For us a better route in would have been onto Buffalo Mountain Road from the Blue Ridge Parkway midway between Mabry Mill and Ricky Knob.

Such hospitality!

We had such fun! The hosts were so helpful and hospitable. Our kids had a blast with their kids. They went over & above and we had great conversations!
