Hello possums!

I'm a excited lil sunflower to find the couchsurfing community. This January I’ll be in NZ bikepacking and attending the Enspiral Summerfest in Wellington.

Day to day I play in the roles of
~ regenerative design ~ unsuspecting engineer ~ aspiring herbalist ~ artist ~ dancer ~ permie ~ pleasure activist ~ facilitator of emergent practice

Really just in awe of existence here on earth and I’m working to help others find that awe, see their place amongst it and how to care for the life-giving, creating, supporting systems we are a part of 🩵

I’m chatty, but also love to read with a cuppa. When travelling I enjoy hiking, live music, local markets, river & ocean swims and random spur of the moment events.

Much warmth,
Jessamie
