Queer postmodern dancer/performing artist with a studio art practice. I like to be in dialogue with people, space, nature in its various forms, and myself. I do my best to exist in consideration of others. I often show caring by cooking, creating and talking. Chances are, I know where all the good vegan/vegetarian restaurants are wherever I am, or I'm looking for recommendations. Sharing is my default. Early rising, early sleeping. Low-maintenance guest, easy-going host. I like to use my words. I am also quite comfortable with silence.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
