I'm Kira, I live in BC Canada and I am spending this winter and Spring exploring Mexico. I am an artist and tattoo artist, my art is how I connect to my deepest self and the spirit of the world around me. Another deep love I have is making music and writing songs (though I can be shy hehe) Nature is medicine and I try to live in close relationship to Gaia as much as I can. I am learning Spanish and really hope to be fluent by the time I return to Canada!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's an awesome way to build trust, connections and community. When I put down roots I will definitely become a host
