Friends describe me as a pretty big goof ball, or moreso a clumsy LITTLE goof ball ....I'm juuust 5'foot!
Sometimes quiet, very considerate, yet full of spunk and energy when the time is right. A very kind gal that loves all people and beings. I'm up for nearly anything -especially the atypical and absurd!
[Note: I might need a nap first, 20 mins its all I need]

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Host those needing a place to crash. Meet fellow travelers. Exchange knowledge and skills.

Interests

o "Chin Wagging" I love me a good conversation about realizations, revelations and stuffs :)

o Urban exploring: Climbing buildings and trees.. I love buildings, their architecture inside and out and especially on top.

o Swimming, canoeing and any other non-motorized water sport.

o Sledding, slip n sliding, and irish coffees definitely take up my winter leisure time.

o Biking: during any month of the year! it is my primary mode of transportation on a day-to-day basis.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scuba diving with baby seals in the kelp beds of the coooold Pacific Ocean off Vancouver island; and, finding lion's mane after a rough Panamanian volcano trek.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always open to teach, learn, and share. Curious-minded and usually excited to learn what others are passionate about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

+ Natural and Sustainable Building Techniques (straw bale walls, passive design, earthen plasters and floors, hempcrete, tadelakt, solar/PV installation)

+ Mycology (mush love to the fungal queendom, whom I work with daily...growing, identifying, and remediating soils)

+ Common denominator Cooking and Baking (celiac safe, low-to-no sugar, veggie, vegan, paleo, whatever, whoever -- I love feeding everybody and can do it on a budget)
