Right now I'm focusing on rebuilding my health so that I can get back into the field and GROW FOOD!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mostly as a guest at the moment, but doesn't hurt to ask if we have space. My home is on Cortes Island, in a group house with lots of gardens and some animals (chickens, goats, cat and dog).

Interests

Yoga and dancing my own style, kind of resembling bellydance meets a martial art. Healthy cooking for rebuilding adrenal health. Forest hiking and kayaking. Singing kirtan (mantras). Thinking about feminism, the mysteries of communication and the environment. Art and going to art galleries!

Music, Movies, and Books

Bjork and gamelan (contemporary indonesian) music. I'm a sucker for movies with strong female leads, like Made in Dagenheim, Contact, and Aeon Flux. Used to be a trekkie. I've been reading books on Chinese medicine, feminist titles like The Wounded Woman, and a few Tom Robbins!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did an 8 month-long farming apprenticeship at the Salt Spring Centre of Yoga several years ago. That was an amazing year. I'd love to be a farm yogi again soon...
I learned so much about what yoga really is, and different styles and approaches, which I'm thrilled to share with anyone!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can talk about NonViolent Communication too, although I'm no master.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My love of dance, particularly 5 rhythms. Also easy yoga, like restorative, yin and alexander technique. I'm a good listener.
