ABOUT ME

Finally found where i belong after a long time searching... and have got the travel bug again.... but Colorado's rivers run in veins. I'm a mountain girl, river rat, yoga teacher, outside as much as possible. I love to laugh, travel, hike, paddle. craft, take pictures. I love to talk to people, learn about their lives...love cultures... love good food, good beer...enjoy cooking yummy meals...creativite. graphic & website designer.

I am hopeful that I can make some kind of difference in the world...love dogs, cats, horses...animals! love to dance...everything..salsa, african dance, hip-hop, country. love music but horrible at remembering artists or song titles. not a huge tv fan. Super fun & stoked on couch surfing! hope to meet you!

PHILOSOPHY

so hard to define...could take a lifetime and is constantly evolving. but am big on love, acceptance, exploration of self and world...in all its beauty and darkness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Had an active chapter in utah that hung out often, try to meet cool people when I'm out and about in US, and I start my international travels again. And I try to offer my couch whenever I can!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have met some very generous, wonderful, interesting, people. Think that everyone we meet can teach us something about life, or shed a new perspective on it.... I love the journey and the amazing people to share it along the way.
