CURRENT MISSION

To live, listen to the wind, and feel water between my toes

ABOUT ME

I am a human, in all of my faults, imperfections, ambitions, and passions, who seeks to engage in social change at the grassroots level, overturn coercive and unbalanced power structures, dismantle systems of oppression including but not limited to capitalism and colonialism, promote peace at the personal, interpersonal, and international levels, build meaningful and radical horizontal relationships with both persons and creation, and kindle revolutionary love as the heartbeat and life-force of the movement.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because with travel, we should meet local people!

Interests

Going to local folk music concerts and poetry slams, playing board games with friends, feeding and caring for my 5 urban chickens. Oh and trying to smash the patriarchy. :)

Truth about Stories by Thomas King

I mostly listen to local artists who I know - this means that most of my listening still happens off of CDs :)
