CURRENT MISSION

mastering the force is an utmost concern,

just trying to stay alive--
at the moment, am working in the wine industry, up in the hills of NorCal...absolutely love meeting new people with adventurous souls and can take you wine tasting, hiking, to secret swimming holes and country back roads where the stars shine as bright as your heartbeat...or that's how it feels to me.

ABOUT ME

just a nobody in the middle of nowhere doing nothing in particular, enjoying the beauty of the world around me.

my name is mar, margie, margarita, mariella...in a constant state of change.

moment to moment connections are what i live for.

i try my best to be a beautiful person in every way:

words, actions, character… a sense of

consciousness & openness & playfulness about this
complex experience known as life.

i like adventures, exploring, most anything outdoors…
i like to reciprocate.

PHILOSOPHY

when we are at our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change.

strangers are simply friends we've yet to encounter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saw the sun rise while the moon was setting in the Mojave desert--the world looked like a snowglobe.

In Mallorca, set a boat free by swimming down and unhooking the anchor from a large rock it was stuck on like a mermaid, probably because I am one.

Experiencing Rainbow Family Gathering in the forests of Portugal, surrounded by beautiful people and staying up all night by the fire playing drums, guitars and celebrating the beauty of life.

Teach, Learn, Share

mindfulness, conscious action and collaboration… the beauty of breath and each moment, now

and now

and now

and now.

SAFETY & SECURITY
**************************************

please know that with me, you are safe: discrimination because of sexual orientation, gender, body, beliefs, religion, ethnicity, nationality is not tolerated...essentially, it is my mission to create a sense of safety in my company, conversation, or whatever experience we share.

therefore, please do not bring any of this negativity into my life if we meet up--instead, this is an invitation to see me & others as valuable souls and spirits with stories to share rather than beings whose bodies & beliefs can be preyed upon.

What I Can Share with Hosts

positive energy and eye contact, an authentic interest in knowing your story… to listen and truly hear you while sharing whatever part of me captivates you.
