CURRENT MISSION

Nature does not hurry yet everything is accomplished-Lao Tzu

ABOUT ME

I’m a Trans and non-binary person. I’m married and I have a small dog named Marla. I’m a PhD candidate at CIIS. I am a really open-minded and unconventional person; Queer radical is a good term. I look at the world through a positive perspective and try to see the humor in most situations. I'm pretty low key day to day- I like reading, watching shows, stimulating conversation, making art, short films, and playing music. I also enjoy cycling, walking around the city and going to gallery openings and house parties. Hosting and performing are two of my favorite things.

PHILOSOPHY

Remember to never get so busy making a living that you forget to build a life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I do plan on traveling in the near future and hosting, however, at the moment, I want to spread good reviews and support the people I have hosted in the past who are traveling now.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been very lucky with the few couch surfers I have hosted. They have helped me with my feng shui and rescued my plants!

Interests

Playing cello and bass guitar. Learning new instruments like accordion, piano and trumpet. Creating sculptures from found objects.

Music, Movies, and Books

I do enjoy Graphic novels and short stories, pithy with pictures!

I dig foreign films, dark comedies and twisted love stories.

My Pandora station is usually on Ratatat, Zoe Keaton, Hurray for the Riff Raff, Pelican, or Otis Redding Radio

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Snowboarded in Kyrgyzstan :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love cooking meals for and with people, however, my favorite part is the presentation. I like making food art/sculptures and creative table setting (btw I'm a freegan; if it's free, I will eat it. My favorite food is a dish made with love).
I am an expert at stage make up-especially glitter application
I can also teach you how to make practical and beautiful things out of garbage, and have a knack for one-of-a-kind gift giving.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am an idea generator. If you need new ideas, I got you. I’m a Virgo, and so quality control, powerpoints, presentations and ironing out the details of a master plan is my speciality. Also I can share one of a kind art, make a cute installation, and take care of plants.
