About Me

I have recently moved from the beach to 4 miles inland on a private ranch area ( which in many ways is even better than the beach; i.e. total peace, quiet, privacy, and much more wildlife) toally off grid, so no distracting toxic EMFs, 5G, social media, etc. You can usually (depending on your carrier) get messages up in the tree, and almost certainly down the road 100 meters! I am a minimalist, vegetarian, yogi, artist, handyman, adventurer, health nut, environmentalist. I have many interests and love learning about new things and people, humor, good conversation. I have a cat and 3 hens and a beautiful sustainable garden/landscape. I'll tell more in the tree ship!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am planning to travel the world someday so I want to start paying it forward! Also, would like to meet interesting new people, especially from other countries.

Interests

Art, yoga (asanas and spiritual path), ecstatic dance, meditation, kite-buggying, gardening, disc golf, building geodesic structures, helping people, walking on the beach, riding my electric unicycle, etc.
