About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling! I work remotely for a finance company, so my office is anywhere there is WiFi. #remotelife

ABOUT ME

"There is great good in returning to a landscape that has had extraordinary meaning in one's life. It happens that we return to such places in our minds irresistibly. There are certain villages and towns, mountains and plains that, having seen them walked in them lived in them even for a day, we keep forever in the mind's eye. They become indispensable to our well-being; they define us, and we say, I am who I am because I have been there, or there." - N. Scott Momaday

PHILOSOPHY

"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
Of cabbages--and kings--
And why the sea is boiling hot--
And whether pigs have wings."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking to connect with my fellow humans from all walks of life. To share a conversation, a meal, a safe place to sleep. To travel lightly, consciously, humbly.

Interests

Writing, tide-pooling,
dancing, camping, intimate conversations about travel, whimsical art, going on walks, cooking, reading, roadtrips...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

whale watching; living in a cave in Central America; walking the streets of Havana; Machu Picchu; keeping my garden alive.
