CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am an honest, loyal, happy hippie at heart, who lives for adventure... A joyous vortex of intelligent calm. I have been preparing for quite a while to leave my corner of the world behind and embrace the rest of it. I have a smile on face almost all the time and I enjoy being a grounded and positive force. I believe in the law of attraction; where you focus your thoughts is how you create your reality... So I am focusing on exploration, growth, adventure, compassion, learning, and spreading positive vibrations as I travel the this amazing planet.

PHILOSOPHY

Remain open minded. Don't take anything personally. Try (almost) everything once. Smile. Mental space is valuable; think only with light and love for the things you want for yourself and others. Take responsibility for yourself. Give without expectation. Receive with gratitude, and pay it forward. We are doing pretty well on planet earth, but we can do better....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I do my best to raise the vibration of all that around me. I learn when there are teachers and teach when there are students, keeping an open heart and open mind always.

Interests

I love spending time with people and communities, learning about cultures and appreciating the different bonds that tie people together. Los Angeles, where I grew up, is a great and diverse place, however it's population and size can leave one feeling disconnected. I enjoy exploring cultures in their historical and geographical context, and learning about the foods and history that surround them. My passion lies in learning holistic wellness techniques from around the world that I want to incorporate in my own wellness center one day.

Aside from that, I absolutely love music... Music, music, and dancing.. And snowboarding big white mountains...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of most highest spiritual experiences is sitting atop a giant snow covered mountain on my snowboard, staring down at endless trees, lakes, and mountain tops in the silence of wind.

The other, is dancing away the night in a circle of my best burning man friends; expressions of our souls encapsulated in corporeal trance..

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been a personal trainer for 6 years, helping people to get in shape, and pushing the body to its limits. I also teach aerobic classes, which are a lot of fun, to get the group energy going and get everybody sweaty. I have experience as a massage therapist as well, and am always happy to share and teach in exercise or reward a host or friend with massage.
