ABOUT ME:
I'm a young easy going female sprouted from the rural lands of Cornwall, recently flocked from a 3 year wandering experience in New Zealand, now travelling in Asia eager to experience new cultures, take granted opportunities and to learn and spread beneficial knowledge. Sharing skills over bills, volunteering and communicating with different people upon various journeys has helped to teach and be taught, more than i could have imagined, i adore and aim to continue embracing this way of movement through life, I welcome and recommend it to all =]

PHILOSOPHY:
The most important thing in life is to stop saying i wish and start saying i will, consider nothing impossible and treat possibilities as probabilities.
Nothing is ever lost, only transformed.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Its a good way of meeting sound people and gaining connections, to experience a place with the views from the locals, to eliminate the prioritization of money within interactions with people, to share and learn a variety of knowledge between those who are experienced in any field.

Interests

Travelling, - Meeting new friendly faces, Learning, Growing, Sharing, Hiking, The unknown
Creativity, - I like to paint and draw, conjuring mixed media projects from foraged materials, I also enjoy braiding hair, dreading hair practicing henna and applying feather extensions. Occasionally poetic rhythm springs to life. One of my most recent projects was building a recycled geodesic dome structure which i lived in, hosted others, and shared art and chill-out times around New Zealand, it currently resides as a safe resting space for travelers upon the Te Araroa walkway NZ.
Activity, - Walking, swimming and yoga in aesthetically pleasing areas never fails to set me up for a good day. Dancing with circus toys is especially good for the soul.
Socially - I enjoy festivals and gatherings from large longer scale events to small jam sessions around a fire, dancing to beautiful music and conversing and developing ideas and projects with enthusiastic souls.
Educationally, - Environmentally sustainable and self sufficient ways of living are gratifying practices to learn and emmerse in. Topics involving mind over matter. The moon, stars and the planets are of an importance to me and i love to gaze and learn from them when i can.
