About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Hello! I am excited to be traveling again after a short pause and delay. My current mission is meet and befriend people and take over the world! Well.. kind of..
I am actually really working to look around with open eyes and an open heart to begin to redefine my life. I think if i look hard enough I will understand myself better, what I need, what I want and how I want to live. Meeting all of you helps with this immensely- your perspectives, your laughter and your joys they make me remember myself and inspire me to grab my dreams.
I have a deep buring desire to take this whole world into my heart and know it as somewhere I love. How do I do this? City by city, heart by heart. Once I have met you, now I love you and I am more wise for that.
ABOUT ME
I am a colorful painting in shifting sands. Evolving and refusing to stay still in mediocrity. I would say I am an artist through and through and I change and change and change, The consistency that remains is the creative heart underneath that fuels my fire. I am everlastingly curious, interested, adventurous, and silly. I love to try new things and enjoy sharing these moments laughing with new friends.
Electronic music, dancing, movies, books, entrepreneurship and cultural exploration are some of my favorite topics. I also happen to love board games, cooking, and excercise. I study yoga, qi gong and meditation and i love working on new projects that make my mind think.

PHILOSOPHY
I live my life by choice. My choices create my world. Dont listen to all of that crap in your head, there is something deeper breathing you...build it and they will come. The inspiration is there , here and now. Youve got to be present to recieve it. Share it. Thats what friends are for. They help you inhabit your heart. So come out of that shell cause you can only succeed to the same height that you are willing to fall from...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Oh gosh, i just got here.. I would LOVE to offer spaces for people to come visit my bubble that I may learn and give and support.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I In Santa Cruz where I live and rent can be outragious, I have couchsurfed quite a bit before settling down in my current home. I always found it a way to meet people and learn things you would never know otherwise. Also a good way to improve manners, cleanly skills, and not accumulate too much stuff. I get to meet fabulous new people and every new home is like stepping into a world of its own. There are lessons everywhere to be integrated.
