CURRENT MISSION

Growing and enjoying!

ABOUT ME

I am a very silly friendly person, but I am often reserved and serious, too. I am excited to repay my karmic traveling debt and spend the summer hanging out with visitors and showing them my fine city!

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive."
Howard Thurman

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have benefitted from surfing more than anything else. My housemates may be interested in hosting surfers in the future!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CouchSurfing has taken me all over this country and I have learned SO much because of this, most important that there are still loads of genuinely good and giving people all over this planet.

Interests

I love to dance, love to dress up for parties, love to hike and to travel, love eating all kinds of food, love riding my bike, sitting on the porch swing, drinking beer, roadtrips, coffee, fast food, compost, tanning hides, country music, reading, romcoms, and I sure am a sucker for an outhouse with a view.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Rolling down a sand dune naked at sunrise in the Sahara.

On that note, my best amazing thing is being naked in three different sand dunes: one white, one pink, one orange.

And every sunset in Sedona, AZ and in all of the New Mexican state!

Teach, Learn, Share

I dabble in dying, spinning and knitting with wool; sewing and crafting clothing and tanning hides; dancing...?? I know some native plants (in the NW)!

I would like to learn about music in all its forms, to sing, more about gardening, sign language, languages, more astrology, building, home brewing, living off the land and HOW to teach better.
