Typical forest-raised Art Director who doesn’t like staying in the same place for too long, and loves new views while making friends with strangers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe on bridging the economic and social gap that has been stripped away from contemporary traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Avid record collector of all things: 60s-70s worldwide psych, proto punk, African tradition, riot grrrl, afrobeat, worldwide egg punk, UK rock, blues, experimental noise, singer/songwriter, Jamaican rocksteady, indie, French chanson, jazz, Portuguese and South American rock, and so on. It’s a problem.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve traveled to 49/50 US states, camping in over 35 of them.

Guess which state is missing from my list and win a prize.

Teach, Learn, Share

Im currently learning Portuguese myself.

Can teach about all things art & design, record collecting, music making, cooking, field guiding, camping, and wilderness living.

Can share my love for community, and some local and not-so-local recommendations.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We have a single standing 16ft backyard bell yurt, complete with a hammock, floor fan, air mattress, upright and floor seating, piles of NatGeo to flip through, painting and sketch supplies, in a tree filled back yard. It's our little diy art oasis, that we are opening up for guests. :)

Myself (she/her), my partner (he/him), and our dog (f) live on the property in our house.
