ABOUT ME

I am a determined woman who has a lot of plans.

I enjoy meeting new people, going new places, dancing all night, growing things, eating good food, and my dog!

PHILOSOPHY

"Only after the last tree has been cut down; Only after the last fish has been caught; Only after the last river has been poisoned; Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten" --Cree Prophesy

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitched most of Canada now :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to teach people that anyone can create art, good food, and grow plants. That pittbulls aren't the problem. That kites ARE in fact the best way to procrastinate and also make new friends. I can teach someone how to knit, how to make an amazing cassarole, that nature can heal, that humans can heal.
I'd like to learn anything you can teach me!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A bottle of wine, plant advice, an empathetic ear, my dog's tricks, some free gardening if I'm not on a deadline, dog training, stories.
