PHILOSOPHY

I'm just the universe experiencing itself.

"Our individuality is all, all, that we have. There are those who barter it for security, those who repress it for what they believe is the betterment of the whole society, but blessed in the twinkle of the morning star is the one who nurtures it and rides it, in grace and love and wit, from peculiar station to peculiar station along life's bittersweet route."

--Tom Robins

"Surrender to yoga, for
where is the conflict when the truth is known?
Where is the disease when the mind is clear?
Where is death when the breath is controlled?"

--T. Krishnamacharya

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Can't say enough good things about everyone that's hosted me, and the same goes for those I've hosted. You are brilliant. Thanks for putting yourself out there!

Interests

At the moment, I'm into anything with the capacity to teach me about myself. So basically, I'm into life. I'm constantly in awe of the ability of relationships, literature, planetary movements, music, dance and ritual to reflect the truth of my nature. Learning is so brutal and so awesome!
