CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy the moment more!

ABOUT ME

I love learning by doing and meeting people from different places. Travelling really sparks my fire.

I am creative and excited about exploring and learning.

I am a life long learner who loves to learn from kids and grownups who are around me (rather than virtually).

I care a lot about how everyone is feeling and put a lot of attention to communication and group dynamics. I want everyone to get a lot out of our experience together and work toward that goal.

I come from a family who puts social justice high on their list of values.

I am open minded and not picky. I enjoy trying on other people's shoes. I'll go to new places, meet new people of all ages, and try new foods.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life for: Creativity, Collaboration, Open-heartedness, and Process based learning.

I am working on 4 ways to be with dance and life:
To be aware, to be available, to be responsive, to be clear (Mike Vargas)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love couch surfing. I feel rejuvenated by meeting cool people and exchanging. I have been traveling/living around Europe since 2010... I teach dance and perform and love meeting people. I came to Europe on a trip and surfed more then. I stayed in Europe--first living in Spain and then living in Germany. I was based in Freiburg, Germany and then in Malaga and Barcelona, Spain where I am a freelance English teacher and dancer. I've been traveling and teaching in the US and Mexico this year and don't have a home base at the moment. I hope to continue to meet other travelers or people who want to share about their lives/homes/countries along the way who would generously take me around or put me up for a few nights. It has been great and supportive to meet people from all sorts of lives and places.. I love the simple generosity of people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfing since 2010... also have hosted a number of people in my home but usually they were organized outside of the couchsurfing page and I find out later that they are also on here. I have a lot of housemates... and only a tiny room so it's almost impossible to host people for now. I hope to host in the future... I've had ... Great experiences --thank you.

Algo increíble que he hecho

When I watched the movie: The Business of Being Born. (all about giving birth). I had dreams about giving birth for months after that.

Some day I will but I'm not rushing it.
