CURRENT MISSION
*working to end hunger in the US within constraints of current paradigm*

I volunteer my time with a group called Rescuing Leftover Cuisine, a SUPER FUN way to spend an hour or two while you are visiting NYC!! It really adds a meaningful touch to your visit and you get to see nooks and crannies that you probably would not have seen otherwise.

Otherwise it is...
...to find out how small the world really is....and how quickly love spreads...

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Boulder Colorado, with the beautiful mountains at my back! Followed the mountains west to the Cascades and have recently departed the PNW to live in a city of mountainous building!!

I live because I love life. and I love life because I live. I Appreciate all that I have been able to experience.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since moving to NYC, my couch is full of visitors without opening it up on CS! Sadly I do not have space right now...maybe when it is dreadfully hot this summer and not many family and friends are visiting!! :/

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed on a couch in Athens & Crete in Greece and in Asisi in Italy. I have just begun couch surfing in the States and have thus far had a fabulous time! I have met many people that are a part of the community...my family in Boulder has hosted couch surfers and that has been fun for them...

Interessen

being around humans, movement: dance, yoga, walking, stillness. Baking deliciousness. sipping something scrumptious...conversing. I am also passionate about civic engagement, community building and working to end poverty and hunger in the US!
