Recently graduated from university studying art and dance. Currently bike touring through Europe with two friends ! Looking for warm places to sleep when we aren't camping.
Learning to treat myself with tenderness and rest, others with empathy, compassion, and patience, and the world around me with curiosity and wonder.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"A tourist sees what they've come to see, a traveler sees what's there."
I'm on Couchsurfing to do the latter.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite movie is Heathers and beyond that I've never been able to decide
I love most genres of fiction as well as any books that challenge my biases. Currently trying to read primarily non-western authors.
I love hearing the music that other people listen to. I have a soft spot for old school hip hop, things to boogie to, and songs that take care of your heart.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Won a grant to travel and develop my own form of pictorial language to describe movement and the somatic experience. I also have a video of me throwing up while paragliding, hoping to go viral one day!

Teach, Learn, Share

We're teaching ourselves to tablet weave right now and we could teach you too!! We're happy to overindulge in a train of thought with you or sit in absolute silence if that's your deal. I'm also great at reading out loud.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We are happy to help cook or clean, teach you a craft, draw you something, or tell you a story. We have camping gear along so a floor, barn or even patch of grass will do.
