About Me

I'm on leave from teaching the kiddos and looking to get work and relocate in Canada. I enjoy hoops, photography, dancing, live music, traveling, beauty, nature, meditation, and wisdom... and much more.
Not square; more like a fractal.
Working on my progress, taking care of the health, and looking to serve humanity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Not getting paid this year and still have to cover health insurance, so I gotta ball on a budget. I always maintain that if I know one person on a continent that's reason enough to travel there. I usually avoided ex-pats b/c I wanted to get a real-deal feel of a place, so knowing locals is key connecting with a new spot.
If you would kindly help a seeker on the path, the universe will pay your kindness forward.
