Friends and family would describe me as a personable, happy, and adventurous soul with immeasurable patience, kindness, and passion. I seem to be always seeking the next best thing, all the while knowing there is nothing better than what I have, and the present moment.
I strive to practice simplicity and never stop growing and learning. I am pretty much just living life, trying to stay balanced and positive. I constantly find myself in-between being very ambitious and very content, and I'm pretty cool with it now. I love being a positive influence on people around me, and making spaces give off better energy too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Life is too short, the world is too big, and the sharing of experiences is too amazing.
Exploring the world though a camera lens, or with your nose in a map could not possibly compare to the personable and cultural experience that couch surfing has shown me thus far, and I would not want to travel any other way.

Interests

I'm into guitar, biking, yoga, gardening, and photography. Mostly I am passionate about service and hope to make a life long career out of it!
I am aspiring to learn Sign Language and would love help with that!
In Philadelphia I have been spending a lot of time moving an initiative to create an Large Scale Urban Permaculture Forest on City Grounds, very exciting!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dedicated two weeks volunteering at an Indian Reservation in South Dakota that needed some serious help. This experience was more moving than helping New Orleans after Katrina.

Teach, Learn, Share

Whatever I can! We will know once we meet :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Definitely can help non-English speakers, I can teach Piano, Guitar, nearly any instrument really and music reading. I can also teach some Italian cuisine, yoga moves, massage techniques, vegan recipes, best smoothies, and fun card games. I have a knack for bringing sunshine around with me so perhaps some ice cream on a rainy day or doing your dishes or something would be in order.
