ABOUT ME
Sometimes crazy, sometimes quiet, but always looking to enjoy good moments and support folks as much as I can.
I love my work. Spend most of my days in the classroom supporting young people in their development and thinking. Hoping to give them some tools and strategies to solve problems, bring about justice and create nurturing communities. It amazes everyday what these kids can do. Hoping to expand into community health work.
Travel as much as possible to expand my understanding, lend a hand, and weave myself into this global community. Wanna take part in creating safe spaces and a nurturing environment for radical expression and collaboration wherever that may be.
Traveling really gives me that timeless reflection and reconnection to the infinite.
Wanna be true to myself and learn as much as possible from all people and places. I'm looking to listen to your stories, share stories, and live this moment.
PHILOSOPHY
Be yourself,
everything is connected,
learn from your experiences,
live THE moment,
keep it simple
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Couchsurfed in France, Mexico, and Iran. Made so many great friends because of it. Sadly unable to host at the moment. If everything works out, I might be hosting again by the end of the year!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Using the privilege to travel, not all have this opportunity
Teach, Learn, Share
I have much more to learn than I have to teach. Perhaps you can still learn something new from me.
Into learning languages, so if there is a language that you are familiar with I would love to practice it with you.
At the moment looking to build up survival and self-sufficiency skills (bio-intensive gardening, permaculture, sewing, herbalism, energy generation, engineering, etc).
Always trying to grow as an educator. Always open to discuss my experiences and learn from another teacher's experience.
Pretty good at English, if you want to practice or need help with writing or translations I am quick and experienced.
