CURRENT MISSION

To improve the world I live in, in no matter how small a way... every bit makes a difference.

ABOUT ME

This seems so broad! I'm human (for better or for worse). I like my own company but am learning to be more outgoing. I'm often quiet but if you get me started on a subject I take to heart, I may not stop. I'm passionate about the things I believe in. Probably too much so for some people. That said, I'm a good listener and respect everyone's opinion. Health and food are extremely important to me. We only have one body so we better take care of it!

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that boredom is a made up concept. Also happiness is a choice and a state of mind, not a result of outside circumstances.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Share my experiences with you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm currently surfing around all of Canada on a theatre tour. It's a mix of old friends and the CS community.

Interests

I will listen to your stories with intent, whatever you talk about. I feel like a sponge and love to take in everything I can. Alternative forms of government, social and environmental justice, arts and culture, various spiritual expressions, cosmology, astronomy, anything that you can find in the forest, on a mountain, in the desert, or in the ocean... I am easily entertained: looking up at the stars for hours, looking out the window on a long bus ride, concocting a brand new made up dish...

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: French, Métis jigging, ballet, lots about the stars, how to be happy...

I want to learn: Huron-Wendat (the language of my ancestors), lots more languages, the banjo, anything you can teach me...
