Overview
About Me
I am nothing but a young woman on a journey to create her place in the world, following my curiosity one step at a time in the spirit of adventure. Following my heart, trusting it will lead me to my soul.
I come from many places - originally an Island in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, but most recently the Green Mountains of Vermont.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To travel through the world with the least amount of impact on the environment and the most impact on creating connection and community wherever life takes me.

Music, Movies, and Books
Lord Huron - Strange Trails, Iron & Wine and The Wood Brothers is what I've been listening to lately.
All the writings of Terry Tempest Williams, Barbara Kingsolver, Annie Dillard and many, many more.
I'm not very good at sitting through movies but one I recently did watch (twice!) was Captain Fantastic.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Each day is amazing in it's own way - it's all about perspective, I can't pick just one.
Teach, Learn, Share
"Nobody knows what you want expect you and nobody will be as sorry as you if you don’t get it. Wanting some other way to live is proof enough of deserving it. Having it is hard work, but not having it is sheer hell." - Lillian Hellman (partial)
