I create video media in East Bay San Francisco. Originally, I made a living as an artist-craftsperson in Australia and then made Yoga my main focus. I was an AirBnb host for many years, so I enjoy hosting people. Healthy, conscious living is my habit, and I'm open-minded and accepting of others.
For most of my adult life I was a full-time Yoga practitioner living in India and staff with an international Yoga Foundation. I moved from Australia to the United States and am now an American citizen (also Australian!)
I moved to San Francisco, California and re-trained in video - specializing in creating teaching media for experts marketing their courses online.
I became Vegetarian at 18 (and still am) and into health and conscious living. But I'm cool with non-veg kitchens and eating with meat-eaters or living with those who smoke. I love cats, dogs, children, but with two other apartments in the building I live in, I can't have animals or children come stay with me as it'll cause tension with other residents.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy traveling and prefer to stay with local people to get the best experience. I also love hosting, so having you stay with me would be great. Sharing and helping each other out is how we can make this amazing world even greater. I've been an AirBnb host for many years.
