tuning into the inward music

ABOUT ME

this pretty much sums it up:

PHILOSOPHY

"although we rarely hear the inward music, we are all dancing to it nonetheless" rumi

"and she danced; she danced with the music and the rhythm of the earth's cirlces; she turned with the earth turning, like a disk, turning all faces to light and to darkness evenly, dancing towards daylight" anais nin

honesty, open heart, finding the magic in the mundane, making deep connections, trusting the unknown, laughing at myself, remembering to play, embracing the darkness in me and learning to accept it in others, working on my dance moves

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first CS experience-- I want to see the unique side of the countries I visit: meet the regulars at quaint cafes who sit in the same spot everyday, explore the holes in the wall, sit down to a family dinner, climb someone's favorite tree-- couchsurfing seems like a great way to do this!
