I spend as much time as I can sharing good times with loving people, making meaningful connections. Love to co-create music, or share a good memory with hosts, or just laugh!

Travelling nomad from 2014-2018, from Asia to Canada and Europe, did some work exchanging and did some coaching online, then 2018-2019 I helped set up a bilingual eco-community in France.

I try to eat/live vegan, I cycle-tour quite often, I enjoy community based things like Rainbow gatherings and I sit/serve at Vipassana courses at least annually.

Last year I set up an eco-community in Ardeche (http://grainandsens.com)

I currently live in a yurt.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love getting to understand people's stories and their personalities. Getting to know inspirational people and being out in some new unknown world, laughing with people and sharing some good times!

I have really been inspired by so many people in this fantastic CS community - I'm not just looking for a bed.
