Buenas!

My three highest values are: learning, traveling, and health. My friends and family often describe the "soft intensity" or "fire" I maintain. I am very passionate and joyful. New things excite me, and I am always searching for more adventure. Everything in life holds a lesson if we are willing to see what the Universe is trying to show us. No matter what life brings, we can find secret gifts and teachings; that is, if we stay present with the Now.

It is quite daunting to explain who I am in a few paragraphs. Feel free to get in touch with me. It is much easier to talk than write.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel. Easy enough, right? The best kind of experiences are those shared with genuine and unique people. I prefer staying with local people or local wildlife (camping). For me, it is all about experiencing a new place in its entirety. I do not travel for comfort or for the familiar.

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

I do not watch television unless it is in another language, educational, or humorous.

I love to read, and I usually only read nonfiction. However, if I get a good fiction book, I will not be seen or heard from for hours to days. The nonfiction topics I typically read cover holistic health and environmentalism. To give you an insight, the books on my desk (that I am currently reading) are the following: Integrative Women's Health; Sustainable Architecture; Hands of Light; Ecopsychology; and Hi My Name is Chellis, and I'm In Recovery from Western Civilization.

Like I stated earlier, I adore learning.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I build wobbly bridges in the sky with my friends. Then, we cross over canyons and between mountains on them. (Highlining).

Teach, Learn, Share

I will teach any and all I know. I am a certified yoga instructor, a certified wellness coach, a meditation instructor, a health educator, a rock climber, a slacker, and have a lot of information swimming in my brain and body.

Please teach me your expertise and interests! As I have expressed, I highly value learning.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I share all the information and knowledge I have, all of the skills I have compiled, cooking meals for my host, and help with maintaining the property or house. I forgot to mention I have been gardening for work for over two years.
