I want to be knock over, blown away, taken by...

I live for the next time I am able to travel. I come alive with music, the visual arts, dance, and creating. Give me a challenge, and I will annihilate it.

I choose to be happy, content, optimistic instead of letting circumstances and people ruin me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have couch surfed abroad and have hosted many guests over the years, on couchsurfing and otherwise. Exploring internationally is truly energizing to me and meeting people from far away is equally as exciting.

Interests

I adore most food from other cultures, painting, dancing, my two gorgeous felines, live music, a beautiful landscape, a soft touch, a strong cup of coffee, a dry glass of wine, chocolate, designing clothing, a late night walk, driving, meeting you.

Music, Movies, and Books

A couple movies of choice: The Red Violin, My Fair Lady, Harold and Maude, Oliver, LOTR...
Music encompasses my life... I could talk endlessly about music. I'm all over the place in the styles I listen to... I go from acoustic folk like Over the Rhine or Jose Gonzalez to crazy electropunk like the Faint to more spacey electronic indie like Radiohead. Other favs are Now it's Overhead, Band of Horses, Kings of Convenience, Bon Iver, Sufjan Stevens, Imogen Heap... etc, etc...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the more amazing things are yet to come in my life... I have seen probably many more things than the average person my age, but I think there's so much more up ahead. Can't wait for the future to get here!

Teach, Learn, Share

I dabble in many things... sewing, screen printing, violin, ballet, tap dance, crochet... the list goes on.
