Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Stay alive happy and healthy! Apparently apply for grad school or something like that...
ABOUT ME
I studied sculpture, drawing, and french because that's exactly what I wanted to go to school for.
I am disenchanted by strip malls and suburbs and wish to live out of the U.S. if I can, though I do love NY and SF.
I want to either be A: an English teacher abroad or B: a commercial art person, or C: an educator in the US!
PHILOSOPHY
I believe in the ideology of the international citizen.
I also believe that people can dig their toes in any sand, should they so choose.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I try to be a positive and imaginative addition to the live of the people i meet! I adopt stray people at burning man and I love to break bread and open bottles with good people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've surfed and Hosted a fair amount! I can happily say I get a lot of joy from both.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
4 years Burning Man, France, Germany, Morocco, Spain, Hawaii, Minnesota (eeoo!) Italy, Greece, I also see big cats on Animal Planet.
Teach, Learn, Share
I want to teach and learn languages and recipes. I want to see and show. I want to be a good ambassador for the U.S. as someone who shows love and understanding: I have open ears eyes and sometimes mouth.
