ABOUT ME

Musician, visual artist, illustrator, burner. I love to cook, read, sing, play guitar, and meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sometimes I like to get away from my home town to refresh my inner world. I am adventurous and I like to meet people and see new places.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Helping to build an integral community services camp at Burning Man for the past four years has been pretty amazing. I'm also pretty fond of the murals I've done. And the songs I've written and recorded. I'm a'ight.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching: Wanna learn to draw or paint? I'm your lady. I can try to teach you a bit about guitar or ukulele.

Learn: I always want to learn more about fitness, about health and wellness, about religion, about spirituality, about science, about art, about making art, about music, about language, about being human.

What I Can Share with Hosts

MUSIC! Art! I will make you an art! I will sing you a song! I will jam with you! I will cook with you! I am also really good at arranging/organizing spaces and making places really home-y if you want help with that. Down to share recipes and workout tips if that's something you desire - I eat really clean and take my health very seriously.
