CURRENT MISSION

Nap on the ground and be present.

ABOUT ME

I am a gypsy loosed from the loving arms of my mountain valley and have witnessed the release of the women/children whom I am honored to be "Mom" to, to follow their hearts and ride the current of desire and freedom. I left "home" before xmas and have been traveling down the west coast visiting family and friends in Oregon and California and am now planning my trip to Ecuador!!! I'm so excited to be going to this beautiful and diverse country and to meet the people and experience the culture. I'm learning spanish too. I get to be there for a month, departing L.A. on Feb. 15th

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy. Have fun. We are all our own creator.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Robin (see Robin Klassen's profile"applee")and I traveled down the west coast last year and across the south western states, over to New Orleans and continued up the Mississippi River into Minnesota (home as a kid in the 60's)and back into Canada and home for spring in the Kootenay Valley. We spent 4&1/2 months on the road in our little Jetta and were hosted and welcomed into peoples homes and lives all along the way! This net work has given me the gift of my life time! The freedom to share our commoness and our uniqueness every where and virtually any where in the richness of culture experienced only in a home, in a community in the extraodinary diversity of the human family and of this beautiful Mother our Earth.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Beyond belief generous welcomes into peoples homes, lives, communities and cultural locales. See above and below.

Interests

I like to be surrounded by trees and wildlife and be by water or in it. I like to travel and discover who is there and see all the different smiles and eyes of the world. I like the changing colors and shifting forms. I love co-creating with this planet by planting seeds and nurturing them and being nurtured by them.I love the relationship that has/is evolving with my grown daughters and the extended tribe. Lots of stuff really, I'm interested in the conciousness of humanity.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Giving birth and being with the dieing are definately amazing chart topping experiences. Along the same line: in the middle of making a cake, waiting for and watching the egg be laid for it down on the farm. Couch Surfing half way around the U.S. with my youngest daughter last winter. And the excitement of couch surfing in Ecuador this winter!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share openess to experiencing what's being reveiled rightnow. I can grow food and cook. I like to work with vibrational remedies and plant spirits. I'd like to learn how to use my camera to its potential and I'd like to be taught to do a bunch more things on the computer.
