Overview
About Me
The year before last, I gave up a comfortable life in Los Angeles, where I worked in television editing. Since then I've been living mainly in Cape Town, South Africa, working through a process of healing, learning/un-learning and seeing the world with open eyes. You could call it a soul-searching journey, one of self-discovery and examination.
I'm looking for warm-hearted hosts to help a low-budget traveler, in return for a home-cooked meal, a hug, a massage, or an interesting conversation about magic in our lives.
I'm Canadian by birth, Californian by upbringing, and currently living as an ex-pat. I'm a burner, a free-thinker, & a natural medicine proponent. I like adventures :)
