I'm going on 25, and I started to get the feeling that I'd perpetually live with abusive people, since I was a child. Finally, my last roommate surprised me with a 30-day notice I wasn't prepared for (I have a lot of debt) and didn't have a lot of friends because I was working a graveyard shift in retail, freelancing during the day, and fitting whatever else I could in. I didn't know what to do, and I was tired of constantly being short-ended. The most important part: I always wanted to walk the earth freely and see the world before I settled down and prayed for kids.

On that last part, I'm sore. My hormones are all jacked up, so I'm pretty sure adoption and foster care are my only options. If you have pets or kids that need care, sitting, tutoring, or almost anything else, I'll gladly be able to assist you.

I've done a lot of different jobs as well, and have tons of skills. My favorite is my attention to linguistic detail. I want to learn more languages and I'm not a slow learner. I could still use practice tho, do don't be afraid to test me. 😅 Also, puns for days, you'll always be smiling and laughing while I'm staying with you.

I like to take care of others. I believe deeply in paying it forward and being respectful, courteous, and attentive to etiquette. Just because I have the right to say something rude or act like a pig doesn't mean I will. Maybe it's just emotional intelligence, but I think caring about others first can be enlightening to everyone.

I studied philosophy, linguistics, and Women's Studies in college. In my work and research I've operated with a single goal in the back of my mind: to reach an actionable and contemplative understanding of pantheism's power to remedy the populist nationalism and current word of our times.

I could probably continue writing this forever, I have stories for days and an Alexandric Library of random interconnected knowledge. Ask me anything! Hear a funny story or two! Let's meet up!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to make more friends, build a community, and talk about how we can change the world together. Oh, and I'm not great at the whole camping thing, I wasn't really completely prepared as I would normally be for anything else, so I'm on foot, not bike, using only a 26L bag, don't have a water purifier or multitool, and for site setup, I have no mat,bag, or tent, just some plastic sheet and paracord I picked up yesterday. Also, is it just me or are hotels expensive? Airbnb isn't much better. 😅
