Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying with locals is the absolute best way to get a feeling for a place, and I'm all about feelings. And places. And people who like to connect with new friends.

Interests

I am a professional portrait photographer. Kundalini yoga is my lifeline. Local food production and economies, perennial permaculture, real solutions to the climate crisis. Walking barefoot. Moonbathing.
Skinny dipping in natural hot springs. Picnics. Death doula work.

I have a photography business. I garden professionally at a spa in the mountains in the national forest. “People Walking” is my favorite side job. I was an urban farmer at an aquaponics farm in Chicago. I tended bar at a world famous comedy club. I worked as a taxidermist for a nature museum. I used to volunteer as a turtle walker.
