My work: Airbnb host
Speaks English
I have lived in "Far West Texas"most of my life. Growing up on a ranch provided opportunities to learn about the daily life of a ranching family. I'm a retired teacher having taught school in Presidio, TX for 21 years. My father's family arrived in Marathon in the late 1880's. They were early settlers who ranched in the region. My history in Brewster and Presidio counties has given me a vast understanding of this area to share with my guests.
