About Me
ABOUT ME
I am spending my winter in sunny Joshua Tree. Nornnally, I live in a little Alaskan fishing village of 2500 people. I have lived all over the US as well as Scotland, Greece, a ski season in France, and a summer in the Scottish Highlands. I seek adventure, meeting new people, seeing new places, challenging myself.
PHILOSOPHY
Live life to the fullest..be yourself...live a simple and meaningful life…consume less....DO MORE!!!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I can meet up for a hike or coffee and chat. I have a good knowledge of the area and the National Park.
I can't host right now.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Really really positive!
Interests
my greatest passion is the outdoors and nature, especially hiking, climbing, trekking, cycle touring, skiing (esp. touring), cross country skiing, and sailing; I also practice yoga, vegetarian cooking, and other hippy eco-groovey things like minimalist living. I like to mix it up between country and city. Although I've become the Alaskan country girl, I do love to visit cities for art, culture, music, and diversity.

Music, Movies, and Books
Most types of music, rock, bluegrass, funk, jam and especially live shows, open mics, and festivals.
Movies: quality dramas, comedies, documentaries
Books: good fiction; lately Tom Robbins: Still Life with Woodpecker, Skinny Legs and All; I enjoy ready books about travels and adventure, like Touching the Void and Into the Wild. I just picked up some short stories by French writer George's Simenon.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've seen the midsummer sun circle entirely around the sky without setting on the north coast of Alaska. More recently I've sailed from Colombia to Panama on a tiny 28 foot sailboat with NO MOTOR, wind power only - amazing experience!
