My spirit is quite curious. Like most, I am here to figure out life as I go, to absorb and grow, to learn and integrate, combining wisdom, intuition and knowledge in an attempt to become my fullest self. My goal is to strengthen my relationship to myself and to life with each passing day, and to help facilitate this process in others as I meet them. I exist with one foot in the ethers and one in the underworld, so you won't find me shying away from uncomfortable topics or from the depths.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am not unique in that I have not travelled much and am now thirsty to see the world. To find myself outside of my roles and away from my comfort zone. At this point in my life, I am searching more more meaningful things than simply partying and connections, and am seeking to really build something in this world, with humans who share similar interests as the foundational blocks. While I intend to revel in the glory of the land and the nature of the locations I visit, I also look forward to meeting wonderful humans with stories and experiences to share, and immersing myself in unfamiliar cultures and traditions.
On a trip to the Europe, I intended to hunt for the perfect master's program, yet found myself immersed in experiencing life in an unfamiliar realm, one that I wish to continue and not return home quite yet. There is more to see, and I am simply leaving myself open to continue my journey.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Embarked upon a successful healing journey from an illness that shut all my systems down. Through combining sacred medicines and exploration of my own essence, emotions, perceptions, and experiences, this allowed me to heal both emotionally and physically, and created within me a desperate craving to understand the complexities of all of these systems, and to explore the complexities of consciousness itself.

Teach, Learn, Share

In pursuit of my master's degree, I plan to create communities where humans can learn and teach one another the things that were omitted in school, yet are paramount to our survival and evolution. An avid student of western esotericism, ancient mystery systems and healing traditions, I plan to merge these things into one cohesive body of knowledge that allows a person's inner transformation to unfold within their daily life, providing a tether for them to return to throughout the process.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Ideas, meals, passions, perspective, and experiences! I love to cook and care for people, and am a great listener. Sharing all of the things I have spent years obsessively learning is the greatest gift I feel I can offer to anyone.My spirit is HUGE, and contagious :)
