I am Lorraine, but I go by the name Radha. I am also known as the 5-Star Reader Madame Rosa Fortune Teller, Interpreter of the Fabled Book of Destiny. I have travelled the world, but I feel most at home in India, where I was able to return—to spend all of 2014—mostly dancing in the streets!

REGARDING my ONE and ONLY REFERENCE: Because this host's actions were exaggerated in the negative, I intuited that she was having a bad day. As a testimony to my accuracy, I went onto FB the next morning to find her to let her know that although she didn't realize WHAT she was doing by reducing my chances of finding a stay by self-indulgently lashing out, at least she could know TO WHOM she was doing it. Immediately, I was validated when I saw her dad had passed within days of her comments on my profile, as she was distraught and had publicly posted that. I don't expect her to go the distance with this site to have her comments removed, but she did apologize to me. I am grateful for that. I hope she is feeling better, but parental death is a difficult thing to process, I know.

I am a practical counselor and a certified teacher (English/ESL) working outside the traditional field of Education, writing a book about my adventures, experiences, and spiritual leadings. I will call it "The Autobiography of a Yogini: The True Story of Radha

I am on a voyage of the soul, a divine call, and a journey of adventure! I love meeting new people! However, I find many people are not new at all, and that we are only soulmates reuniting after lifetimes!

I love cooking, and I travel with spices from India. Ask me to make you my favorite Aloo Gobi or my Tomato Curry! I adore it when people prepare food for me so feel free to! I am predominantly vegetarianvegan/.

I am not yet verified, and now sure if I will be, but you can look me up on FB under Lorraine Marie Hamra Lee, and check out my albums: Trippin' Balls, Balarama, and the Carcophagus, more specifically!

Thank You!

Here is a poem I wrote in my past life as Paramahansa Yogananda:

The Divine Gypsy

I will be a gypsy—
Roam, roam, and roam.
I will sing a song that none has sung!
I will sing to the sky,
I will sing to the winds,
I’ll sing to my red clouds!
I’ll roam, roam, and roam—
King of the lands through which I roam.

By day, the shady trees will be my tent.
At night, the stars shall be
My candles Twinkling in the firmament;
I will call the moon to be my lamp
And light my silver, skyey camp.
I will be a gypsy— Roam, roam, and roam.

I’ll eat the food which chance may bring;
I’ll drink from crystal sparkling springs;
I’ll doff my cap and off will go.
Like a wayward brook of long ago,
I will roll o’er the green
And scatter the joy of all my heart
To birds, leaves, winds, hills—then depart
To stranger and stranger lands, from East to West.
Oh! I will be a gypsy—
Roam, roam, and roam!

But always, when I lay me down to rest,
I’ll sing to Thee my gypsy prayer,
And find Thee, always, everywhere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking to meet like-minded, kindred spirits on my travels. I would sincerely love to make real friends. In addition, It's nice to be in a comfortable setting sharing tea, ideas, food and experiences! I enjoy companionship, good conversation, music, and adventures!

Presently, I am Guerrilla Camping in my Carcophagus since the middle of October when I headed down to Mexicali to have dental implants placed in my jaw. Owie Kazowie! I have been doing Quantum Healing in the Carcophagus since that time.

I was directed by the Divine to come to San Francisco, and only now is it becoming clear why. I ended up in Berkeley, which I adore, and have been here a couple of months now.

I am doing yoga at the Funky Door....I guess I am looking to switch it up a bit. Variety and change is good. Namaste'
