Hi, I have lived in Oregon (above California) for almost my whole life. I don't want to go back any time soon. There is too much of the world to see!

My plan: to be as spontaneous as possible. To see new things. To meet new people. To be alive and present in every moment. Want to talk? Go for a walk? Share some stories, a few laughs and learn something from each other? Can you recommend a nice, cheap hostel for me or may i stay with you?

I am not shy and I have a good heart. I have many tattoos. I wear my heart on my sleeve; and all over the rest of me too. I love art. I love people expressing themselves in all different forms. I always try to keep an open mind. I look forward to meeting you and exploring new places :)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I am on a backpacking trip. I am here to meet new people and explore new places. I promise to be a gracious guest!

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Bedazzling a porcelain mannequin with over seven thousand rhinestones which I individually attached with a wax pencil one by one by hand over the course of many months for my college undergraduate thesis show.

I worked as a tattoo artist for a couple of years and made artwork on people's skin, something very personal. Before I ever did that-- I gave myself many tattoos on my legs, because I would never tattoo someone else until i was confident i could do a good job on myself :)

I have travelled to Israel six times in my life, and had the pleasure of floating in the Dead Sea, where the salt content is so high that you don't have to try.

I left everything I knew behind, left with only a backpack and I am embarking on a great adventure!
