Hi 👋

International pet sitting is another sharing economy. It allows me to explore the world, and since I spend stretches of time with non-humans, I enjoy occasionally attending meetups from this site.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I'm on a pet-sitting adventure somewhere in the world, love to meetup for exploring new places together, grabbing a coffee/tea and going for a walk, or having a great chat.

Interests

It seems all of my life has been a rush... To get somewhere, to do something, to accomplish.

These days I am choosing the slower route. Eating slower. Shopping slower. Walking slower. Traveling slower. Talking slower. (Haha maybe someday!)

Learning more about where the food that nourishes me is really from - how it was grown, by whom, and where... This is a hobby for me.

Hearing and sharing stories... of our relationships with our families and friends, of the process of aging, of how we experience life, what our deepest fears are, what helps us in the darkest of times, and of course what keeps us so dedicated to traveling and being adventurers.

Small talk is agonizing.

• farmers' market
• local food
• slow travel
• nature walks

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: binaural beats.

Movies:
Dr. Doolittle (the original)
This Beautiful Fantastic
Cloud Atlas

Books: too many too list. Rumi and Hafiz are always on my shelf. Oh and "Pronoia is the Antidote for Paranoia"...so good!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I remain enthusiastic about life... against all odds.

Teach, Learn, Share

Sharing stories is one of the best ways to learn about a person.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Ridiculous conversation... let's talk about everything and nothing and just be happy to be alive.

Vegetarian home cooked food - let's cook together!

Introduction to the apps I'm using to travel the world as a pet sitter.

We can nerd out on astrology, human design, gene keys... and all the ways we think we know anything about anything.

Help with children, chores, small farm general labor.
