I love seeing and exploring the perspectives and consciousness of other cultures as much as possible. Happy to just be for now, and to have faith that that's enough.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is like the tide, so give yourself away like the sea.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE:

I used to host a lot when I lived in Thailand, and I've surfed in India, Bali, Vietnam, and the US so far!

Interests

painting, yoga in the morning, scrapbooking, singing on the backs of motorcycles, trying to drive said motorcycles, travelling, learning Hindi, seeing how far I can swim from the American current.

Music, Movies, and Books

Paulo Coelho makes me cry. I'm so in love with him.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've spent over 3 years accumulatively in India, living solely with Indians in traditional Hindu homes. I also taught English in a Waldorf school in Thailand for 3 years. I made my own curriculum and taught 150 young children without speaking a word of Thai at first. It was challenging but quite rewarding too.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to juggle, fiddle on the violin, and some conversational Hindi or Spanish. I'm also certified as an Ashtanga/Vinyasa yoga teacher.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company, conversation, cultural exchange, love, and coffee.

Countries I’ve Lived In
