About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The pursuit of happiness, in the company of good friends

ABOUT ME

I'm a motivator and optomist! I love planning events and bringing people together to create community. I strive to tread lightly on the earth. I love to dance and perform and inspire people in that way. Put me in the river and I am at peace, a bath will do too. Allergic to many cats and dogs, but I love them. I love conserving resources, including places to stay!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I wish I could host. One day, when I have a different house. If I stay with you, I will buy or cook you dinner!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I spent 2 months on the livingroom floor or in a campground in Australia (2007). I was on tour as a firedancer and traveling to experience new people and places. I stayed with several families throughout South America when I traveled with a friend for a month who was in the Peace Corps in Paraguay (2003) My first official couch surfing experience was with a very generous host in Boulder, CO in August of 2008 while I was there for an aerial dance festival.
