Hi friends! I'm a 26 year old from everywhere and no where, an enthusiast of awesome things, an adventurer of the cosmos. I dream of running away with the circus and teaching others that they can fly.
I believe in magic, the ocean's ability to cure most anything, and that if it exists, there is porn of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wanna sleep on your couch, yo. And not in a creepy, rude way or anything. I'm very polite, clean, and I shower from time to time. I hope to convince you to take some time off from work and galavant around the place you call home, find some debauchery and enjoy the time getting to know each other and appreciating this beautiful world we call home.
Unfortunately, my home in LA LA Land isn't quite big enough to accept guests. That said, please feel free to message me with any questions you have about LA! She holds a very special place in my heart, and I would love to share her with you.

Interests

In no particular order...
Adventures, aerial silks, anything and everything circus, exploring nature, traveling, dancing as ridiculously as possible, doing yoga anytime, anywhere, scrambling around on big rocks, singing in public (especially randomly to strangers on the street, who always respond awkwardly), watching and making movies, writing, drinking good wine and great beer, listening to live music, giving really, truly stellar hugs, experiencing elevated states of consciouness... through meditation(!), reading good books, eating plants, taking pretty pictures, and chasing after the pretty pictures in my mind.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love electronic music, rock n roll, jazz/ big band, and really dirty hip hop. Even that stereotypical radio pop hop, 'cuz I'm sorry, but you gotta twerk every once in a while. Pumpkin, Alt-J, MiHKAL, Father John Misty, Daughter, The Human Experience, Tipper, Emancipator, Sugarpill, Random Rab, John Butler Trio, Xavier Rudd, STS9, Yeasayer, Opiuo, Gladkill, Portugal. The Man, Lotus, Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, Ella Fitzgerald, Bob Dylan, The Clash, The Violent Femmes, Kendrick Lamar... And a whole lot more I can't think of because you put me on the spot! I love Blade Runner, Amélie, Pan's Labyrinth, anything by Wes Anderson, David Fincher, Hitchcock, and Studio Ghibli, Sliding Doors, In Bruges, Batman, Boogie Nights, and I'm obsessed with the TV show BroadCity. Pretty sure it's the funniest thing ever to grace the screen. The Great Gatsby, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, Breakfast of Champions, Wild, Fight Club, Choke, The War of Art, and The Giving Tree are some of my favorite reads. This, of course, merely skims the surface.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done many amazing things in my life - I was certified at age 15 to be a yoga teacher; I ran a marathon at age 19; I traveled on tour with a country singer for a year managing her social media and merchandise; I moved to Los Angeles and slept on a couch in an art warehouse for a month before finding a place to live. I've been to Burning Man, gone skydiving, scuba diving, and followed people I love to far and distant places. I traveled all over Eastern Europe with couchsurfers, met amazingly awesome people I still keep in touch with, and performed aerial silks in various countries I visited, including Austria, Poland, and Germany.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach yoga and beginner-intermediate aerial silks to anyone who wants to learn. I travel with my silks so all we need is something tall and strong to rig! I have two really solid dirty jokes I'd be happy to pass along. I make ridiculously good salads and can clean anything if you give me enough caffeine. I'd like to learn all your circus tricks, your dirty jokes, and yummy recipes. Together, we can change the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

This section is basically the same as the one above, so I'll repeat myself for emphasis. Seriously, these jokes are pretty good. I can help you get your zen on, perform aerial silks for your amusement and teach you if you'd like to learn. I'm also quite skilled at sharing bottles of wine. I have a lot of experience. Beer, too. What can I say, I'm a giver ;)
