About Me
I'm 29 years old. I am from the USA, but I have been living in Mexico for the last six years. I studied social justice, I have volunteered with various immigration justice organizations over the years. I am working on an art practice (illustration and printmaking) and I play the banjo.
As a guest, I am very respectful. I am clean, I will do dishes and cook delicious foods for you. I can be a little shy at first, but I open up quickly. I also love sharing (telling and hearing) stories.

Music, Movies, and Books
I LOVE MOVIES! Anything visually striking, I also love historical fictions, and movies about resistance and resilience, inspiration, mindfood.
Music: Although the punk scene kinda bothers me, I'll always have a tender place in my heart for punk rock. I also like political music, folk punk, crust, blue grass, i don't know I'm not sure about genres but I'm pretty flexible with music.
Books: ZAMI: A New Spelling of My Name by Audre Lorde, The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy, anything Toni Morrison or Tom Robbins
