CURRENT MISSION

I'm moving to Australia! I'll be living in the wilderness in NSW for 6 months and then from there I'm not sure!

ABOUT ME

I love reading and writing and enjoying warm days outside. I'm looking to start a new chapter of my life that involves traveling some and then moving somewhere new. My passion right now is working with food security in my community and I hope to continue doing that for a while. My plan is to move soon and get involved with meal programs and food banks.

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to be kind and patient, and a bit adventurous as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

Hemmingway, Steinbeck, Hesse, Stein, Flannery O'Connor, Elizabeth Bishop, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Charles Simic, Jeanette Winterson, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and Betty Smith are some of my favorite writers.

I love a lot of movies: Hair, Battle of Algiers, The 400 Blows, Mother India, The Holy Mountain, M, Manhattan, Bringing up Baby, The Graduate, Say Anything, MASH, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf are a few.

I listen to all kinds of music. I especially love everything funky and fun. Parliament, James Brown, Billy Preston, Diana Ross. I also spent a lot of time just dancing to top 40 hits in my underwear...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swam in the Blue Room cave in Kuaui!

Teach, Learn, Share

Talking about creativity, self expression, and personal truths is something that I love to do with people. To listen and encourage.

I would love to learn anything: bits of languages, new recipes, special traditions, even a good movie recommendation.

While couch surfing I hope to share kindness and respect in all forms. I always respect any space that I enter and keep tidy. One dream would be to help create and eat a home cooked meal with people I meet through CS.
