About Me

CURRENT MISSION

In between missions, thank you very much!

ABOUT ME

I moved to Seoul in January of this year from upstate New York following 5 months of volunteer work at the Omega Institute for Holistic Living. Currently I'm working a little bit doing free-talking sessions, but I mostly spend my time practicing following my bliss and in healing work with myself and those closest to me.

Living in harmony with nature, and each other, is very important to me. One of the best experiences I ever had was living in the intentional community at the Omega. Utopia to me means a mindful gathering of people who’s life work is love, and all of the very real implications that are coupled with that. This being said, I've had a taste of Utopia, and I crave more.

PHILOSOPHY

"Out Beyond Ideas of Right and Wrong Doing, There is a Field, I Will Meet You There." ~ Rumi

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently, picking up lots of useful information on the Seoul CS group. Would love to find some lovely CS people to go to events with!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It started out because I was too stubborn to pay for a hotel. Then I found out CS is an incredible way to take in the culture and people of whatever place I visit. I've made some dear friends through CS. And now I also like hotels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I would like to create some unique experiences worthy of this spot. Yet to come....

Teach, Learn, Share

I do intuitive guidance work. Meaning, if you are uncertain why something is or isn't happening in your life, I can support you in discovering why, and how to move towards what is in flow for you.

I would love to learn about choreography, improv comedy, cooking, different dances, botany...that's what's coming to mind now. If you consider yourself to be well-versed in a particular area and you have a passion to share something you know a lot about, you'll find me an attentive audience of one.
