About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Experiencing another way of traveling

Interests

Am usually traveling with my husband. We love having local experiences and meeting people who are learning to live sustainably or as best that they can. We love trying new foods and learning how to make them. In general, we like to try everything at least once :)

  • traveling
  • trail running
  • medicine
  • medicinal plants
  • indigenous cultures

Music, Movies, and Books

Right now I have a few books on the go, just finished reading “on being mortal,” have another on trauma - to help with things work related. Generally I like reading uplifting, self improvement type stuff, or things about language revitalization.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got married during a marathon....it made cosmo :p

Teach, Learn, Share

Am learning more about gardening, Indigenous medicines and growing/transplanting them to make more accessible, and maintaining aspects of my Plains Cree culture. Goal is to fully tan a moose hide, make a birch bark canoe, etc.
