About I’m in my early sixties, retired Thai-American woman who has been living in the San Francisco Bay Area for the past forty something years. I adore my grown children and two adorable grandchildren. My passions are my family and friends, and my interests are varied...including gardening, cooking, yoga, travel, music, dancing, pottery, and live events. I also enjoy meeting people from different cultures and languages. I feel fortunate to have visited many parts of the world. I am currently taking French and I would like to swap houses with anywhere in France in order to practice my French. I actually would love to visit other countries as well, not only France. I will likely bring a friend along when I travel, but sometimes I also do it solo. My house is located in a safe working class neighborhood of Vallejo, and only a one-hour ferry ride away to San Francisco, half an hour by car to the beautiful Napa Valley, and 2.5 hours of driving to Lake Tahoe for snow and other water sport activities. Now that I am retired , I want to explore the world! And house swapping seems like a good idea. Let’s do it!
