About Me

Grew up in Wolfville Nova Scotia for the majority of my life. Earliest memories are of a year I lived in Arizona. I also lived in Maui for a year when I was 15/16 years old. Lived and studied for 4 years in Quebec, Canada while in the springs and summers travelled and worked as a treeplanter in British Colombia and Alberta Canada.
When not in school I have been travelling/volunteer on farms during the winters in Ecuador, Portugal, Spain, France. LOVE playing music as I have been raised by two musical parents. Piano, Guitar, Drums and Horns.
Completed a month of intensive courses and building at the Earthship Academy in Taos New Mexico last October 2014.
Lived and travelled through the Mexican Estados de Baja California, Baja Sur, Oaxaca, Chiapas and had a revelatory experience in a migration institute in Tabasco for 10 days.
Found an amazing farm lead by a raw food genious who introduced me to Kangen Water which has energized me and cleared my mind, opening me up to new possibilities and potentials to be the best human being I can possibly be !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interactive travel experience with locals on a budget !

Interests

I love to travel and experience new people, ideas, ways of being and knowing. Learning about how to attain the skills to build communities of lovely relations for the greater good of humanity with social ecology, music and art as foundation elements to this Wonderful Life. Living with intention and action for a more respectful and regenerative relationship between humans and the planet. RESPECT is earned.

Yoga, Chakra Meditation and a Joyful Happy (mostly) Vegan Lifestyle have inspired me, giving me a SUPER boost after spending time on an incredible farm in Baja California Sur Mexico in January and February 2015 !
