Ideal Guest
My ideal guest would be an early riser like me who enjoys starting the day with conversation and classical music. S/he would have an active life of their own, and still have the time and interest to take occasional walks, go shopping with me, or accompany me on excursions, such as to museums. When my guest comes home in the evening, we'll talk a bit about our days and share the highlights. My guest will enjoy discussing the news and introduce me to new subjects as well as enjoy hearing about my experiences.

Hosted by
I am a retired, completely independent, healthy person in my 90's, still going strong and in no need of help for my activities of daily living (other than needing a hearing aid). Since the death of my dear wife in 2017, I have hosted people in order to have intellection stimulation and pleasant company. I have volunteered for decades at the Perkins School for the Blind and am an avid collector of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr correspondence, books, and artifacts. I have many other varied and broad interests, including woodworking, baking cookies, and growing indoor plants. I am open to hosting a couple if at least one person will be around and interested in conversation.
