Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
Hello,
Well I'd say Im a very laid back easy to get along with girl. I have a warm and generous spirit and a willingness to connect. Im very independent and have interests in many things, music, art, dancing and healing are key as are good food, good company and lots of laughing.
PHILOSOPHY
I would like to live in harmony with the world around me in open mutually beneficial partnership with the rest of creation in order to dissolve superficial boundaries, realise our oneness and live in love (is it too much to ask?)
Every person you encounter has a different and important role to play in your life and there is something you can learn from each.
We are moving to manifesting our unique individual outcomes which are diversifying and complexifying an already diverse and complex system.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have 'surfed' on friends couches in my last year living and travelling in Chile and Argentina, but none of whom I have met through this site. So I'm looking forward to doing my first 'cold' couch surf. I'll be needing some places to stay in Peru and Bolivia. I might also go to some gatherings or meetings as I'm going to be truly on my own for the first time in a while. I'd love to have people stay in my house when I finally settle somewhere (probably back in Australia) for a while.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
One of my favourite experiences was staying with some friends of friends who I had met only once in Rosario, Argentina. (this wasn't a couchsurfing.org experience, but relevant i think) Before arriving my partner and I didn't know if we would have much to share with this couple. We soon found out that I shared a lot of interests with her and the two guys both had some similar passions too. They made us feel really welcome and even took us to a river island on their boat for a bbq with friends one day. It was a really unique experience and a great way to get to know a new city.

Teach, Learn, Share
I know about lots of great creative events and nice indoor and outdoor parties around the place with beautiful rainbow people around the city! I have very great friends! I can teach what I know about self care, therapy and development and my creative passion for life. how to connect with international community and volunteer opportunities, rainbow gatherings. If anyone needs english or art lessons I would love to have a guinea pig too. I can show you some art work I am making and you can come to my shows when they are on around town. Oh and Im a pretty ok vegetarian cook. I recently learnt how to make dream catchers. I'd love to learn more cooking, philosophy, art and craft, SPANISH! places to see and go, history.
