From the host
Put your car keys away as you are in the center of the City by the Sea! Look across the way and see iconic Newport eateries like the Red Parrot & Midtown Oyster Bar. Glance in the other direction and view Historic St Mary's Church, site of President John F Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy's wedding. Take a stroll in any direction and breath in the salt air and see the water as you will find fun boutiques, restaurants, and bars and the abundant activities this unique walk-able city has to offer!

Born in the 60s
My work: Insurance
After living in Newport, RI for a few years back in the late 80's the beautiful city by the sea drew me back in 2014. Originally a tenant in my property, I am now the proud owner of a very unique Victorian house in the heart of the city. When I am not hosting guest from around the world, I am hopefully traveling around the world. To pay the bills, I work in the insurance industry.
As I get older, the old adage still holds true today... work hard and play hard...and now, I just want to play more!
