i prefer consensual hugs over hand shakes.

so often and so easily, through all the hustle and bustle, blind folds can be placed over the eyes of our hearts and our spirits, but we hold the power and strength to pry them off. this is where i'm being called as of now, for myself and hopefully anybody else i cross paths with who may be tapped on the shoulder with a gentle reminder of this through our experience and connection. we are here to be here, be here now.
in search of living within this state of rawness again, prying these blind folds away, to be as mindful as possible; to be Love.

Big Love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

have heard consistent positive things about the couchsurfing app for years, and now that i'm about to embark on some lengthy travels on a budget, to new places, it's time to do this. i have done plenty of couch/floor surfing, just not via this app.
it's not so much the places we go, but the humans we meet; connections made, experiences had.

What I Can Share with Hosts

housecleaning, improvised or unimprovised songs, piano/trumpet lessons (if you have one available), plant/garden care, genuine hugs, cooking, chimney inspection, a night on the town, a morning on the town, coffee, conversation/presence, giggles, impromptu unprofessional dance sessions, jam sessions!

Or just ask for whatever you desire/need, and I'm sure I can make it work :)
