Ok, this is my sister's description on me so it's a little less modest then my own.

She is a sharp, bright, adventurous, funny, sensitive and intellectual lady. She loves to do yoga, read books, dance tango, salsa, ecstatic..., cook, ski, go to book readings, try new things. She's an early to bed, early to rise kind of gal, she's good for her word, responsible and honest. She's a therapist by profession, and also an artist--a sculptor mainly--and is really really talented at it.

My add on? I'm 39. I'm still exploring and learning but have settled into being a therapist and am hoping to soon be doing artwork too. I really can't wait to travel but have been spending a lot of energy getting rooted in portland after my move 2 years ago.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So many books. Right now I'm reading a non-fiction book the body remembers, but my favorite books are generally fiction. AS Byatt Possession, Faulkner, everything by Herman Hesse, Sexing the Cherry by Jeanette Winterson, Other Voices Other Rooms by Truman Copote.
Music- Alt country like Guy Clark, Gillian Welch, lots of singer songwriter types
