About Me

CURRENT MISSION

get goiiiing!

ABOUT ME

I am happy; green and always growing! I have lots of energy but I also like to spend time on couches :)

PHILOSOPHY

I am not naturally a risk-taker but I am trying to become more open to going where the wind blows me and talking to more strangers :)
I believe that we must take care of the earth for it to take care of us - environentalism is just self-preservation!!
I try to communicate in a non-agressive and diplomatic way

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently by asking people to host me as I travel to Marrakech-

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nada! My friend has people to stay in London and she loves it.

Interests

I am very curious - it would be easier to list the things i am not interested in! (racing cars; reality TV)
I work with children doing Environmental education and nature connection. I am also very interested in the politics of food - who controls it and how we can make stronger communities by growing it ourselves. So, I also like community gardens and permaculture.
I love to sing (often to myself!) and dance to funky music.
