About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn. To grow. To be fully present. A hollow bone. A vessel for love to flow through.

ABOUT ME

I am a lady with an appreciation for this incredible planet we reside on!! I love meeting new people and experiencing new places! I am a mother of a 6 yr old who is my greatest teacher. I have a deep respect for plant and mushroom medicine that guides me foraging most days. I am incredibly grateful for nature's abundance!! I love hiking, swimming, running, yoga, meditation, dance, play, laughter, conversing about the complexities of existence... that sort of thing.

PHILOSOPHY

Appreciate wonderful life!
"LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I can, I happily host fellow travelers or simply share advice.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing has allowed for such amazing experiences for which I am uber thankful! To pick just a one experience would be difficult as one experience always leads to another wonderful experience. That being said, my first surfing experience was very special to me! I had hosted people for a few months when I was living on the island of Oahu, Hawaii and as it was my birthday weekend I decided to pop over to the Big Island, Hawaii for a mini adventure. When I arrived Neil, my host, not only picked me up from the airport but really gave me an incredibly generous welcome to the island! That weekend we had some AMAZING experiences snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay, swimming with the dolphins, whale watching and my favorite, snorkeling at night with the manta rays!! Needless to say I had some incredible experiences thanks to my new friend Neil! He really exuberates true selfless giving and appreciation for peace and wonderful LIFE!

Interests

I live for wilderness adventures! I enjoy doing anything outdoors hiking, snorkeling, etc. I also really enjoy learning about different cultures, telling and hearing stories, and lots of laughter with anyone and everyone!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After hosting a new friend on Couchsurfing, who was also planning a Euro-trip, we decided to join forces and embark on a two month road trip through some of Europe's glorious countries! Dan ended up buying a car with which we had the freedom to stop where we wanted, drive through areas we didn't care to visit, camp anywhere we could find a spot, and meet up with old and new friends along the way with ease and very little money! The experiences we had on this road trip are too many to share on this page, so, if you like, if we meet, I would love to share some amazing stories of the totally terrific road trip through Europe!BEST time of my existance would have to be when I went scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef, where I saw THE most amazing life force, opening my eyes to the incredible world of the great ocean!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to share all I know about the places I have traveled to and share some laughs with new friends! I love to talk about philosophy and have a passion for yoga and meditation that I am always willing to share with a new friend and learn more about! And if you are heading to Montana, I grew up in Bozeman and have some gem spots to share with you! (aka natural HOTSPRINGS you will love, etc. :) ). I have an awareness of wild food and medicines that grow by your doorstep. I love connecting people to plants.
