I'm an artist and performer and also a qualified child therapist. I have a background in method acting, although recently moved more into Clowning (I trained at École Philippe Gaulier over lockdown), which has been an interesting journey! I love learning about people and how the world works; I believe travelling keeps my mind fresh and my heart open. I love the sea, and all of nature, and am a deep diver of human consciousness. My dream at the moment is to create a performance band that improvise/channel performances to expand consciousness and activate divine love. Generally I'm up for a laugh , being playful, and kind.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on coach surfing because for me, travelling is about people as much as it is about beauty and discovering the history and landscape; for me it is important to be around genuine people who are a part of the culture. When I travel I like to try and blend in as much as possible and live like a local which isn't always easy but sure makes for a more authentic experience! Its amazing to see that people are the same all over the world and that we always have something to share and teach each other.

Interests

I love being in nature.
I am a brave sea swimmer, having lived in Brighton, UK for 1.5 years.
I like a bit of hiking, I love to go off the beaten path. One of my favourite experiences was travelling to Iquitos, Peru in the Amazon with a friend. We encountered no tourists on our way and met some amazing locals including a Chief who really embraced us, taught us how to eat giant maggots, entertained us with wild stories of Civil war, and took us to bathe in the local lagoon.
I've been in to the healing arts for a long time, I mainly channel now and read cards. More recently I qualified as an Integrative Pelvic Health Practitioner.
I'm currently very interested in exploring sound channeling with instrumental accompaniment.
