About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to educate people on the problems our world is going through, seeing past all the materialistic fascade

ABOUT ME

I teach private lessons for basic computer software. I also work on a lot of advertising and marketing. I enjoy working and teaching others to use the tools and let the creativity flow. I am a vegan activist and part take in many AR and environmental events.

PHILOSOPHY

To live my life in peace and harmony, with causing as little suffering and consumption as possible. We need to respect the earth, animals, and one another.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

There is a few collectives and groups around town I am involved in. Duchess Horse Sanctuary, Nonprofit Vet Clinic, Veggie Meet-up (discussion and potluck), Community Garden, Gleaners

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I lived out of a backpack for a few years, mostly western USA, and did a little couch surfing. After returning to the East Coast I took several trips where it ended up sleeping on someone's couch...great experiences! I have always had a great deal of fun and experiences meeting new people and enjoying the sights.
