About Me

CURRENT MISSION

gain some perspectives

ABOUT ME

I am going to quote things I have heard my friends say about me before.... Everything must have a function. I am a net-worker. Outgoing yet chill. Industrious, Tree Hugger, Magnetic.

PHILOSOPHY

Do on to others as you would have them do onto you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It all about the journey, not the destination.

I value unique experiences no matter how small they are in comparison to what "I could have done". I like to focus on the now, I am great listener and I love the endless possibilities of story telling. Sharing is caring!

Interests

I love to learn about people and understand why they think the way they do. I also love the natural outdoors and understanding the interconnectedness of nature and people.

I used to study vocal learning in birds and the evolution of language. Now I study environmental systems both in the built and natural environment. I study urban planning, hydroponics, vertical farming, and environmental justice. I will be a student for the rest of my life. Environmental psychology is where it all comes together.

Everyone has something to teach, and everyone has something to learn.

In my free time I go for hikes outside the city so if you have a spot to explore I have a means to do it. I also enjoy urban spelunking or place hacking. I love to get to roofs, underground, nooks and crannies just to say I did. I really like the weird and unusual, but I also have a deep appreciation for the wholesome and simple. I like to have drinks. I like to philosophize.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

watch a lightning storm hit the freedom tower, FROM the empire state building. I guess I didnt really do the storm, but I saw it.

Also, been approached by a horse shoe crab who laid her eggs right next to me in the shallow water on the bay, she did that

What did I do? Take a helicopter lesson
