CURRENT MISSION

Inspiring people to live a life of purpose and fulfillment.

ABOUT ME

I LOVE the outdoors, especially the feeling of the sun on me. Hiking the rocky mountains in the summer is one of my favorite ways to spend time - especially if I can veg out and relax in the alpine tundra.
I am passionate about my work as an acupuncturist and most enjoy working with people at a level to heal body and mind to live a fulfilling joyful life.

PHILOSOPHY

To be.......
To be outside
To see and feel the vibrancy of life - the good of course and even the bad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

How do I participate? My work and life are seamless. In my time off, if I am not out hiking etc I am furthering my learning and experiencing of how to live my own purpose while assisting others to do the same.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I solo traveled around Europe that was common - Ireland, Germany, England etc.
Got stuck in a town during a snowstorm and talked my girlfriend (who thought I was crazy!)to crash in a room with a guy I had just randomly met. It was fine! Another snowstorm got me organizing a Mormon student, a female divorce lawyer and myself to share a cabin - weird but interesting. I am pretty easy going and bring my own therma rest pad and sleeping bag. By the way this all was not with Couchsurfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelled solo around Europe for 5 months spontaneously even though I had been overprotected by my Mom and she tried to stop me however she could. I went anyway with no support or friends that had done it. Changed my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

i can share some of the wisdom of Chinese medicine.
The medicine that transformed my health and my overall life years ago.
I love hearing other's life experiences, there is always something interesting in everyone I meet.
