CURRENT MISSION

Exploring and setting roots in the East Bay! I love meeting new people.

ABOUT ME

I love experiencing life with all my senses! I take pictures of how the sun bounces off the clouds and I'm the girl that thinks rainbows are amazing. I adore animals and will slowly approach with tenderness to gain their trust. I love making new friends and talking to people about their life whether that means learning what they do day in-day out or hearing about their childhood or ancestry. I love experiencing cultures through flavors, food and drinks and in the customary styles. I'm opiniated, but that doesn't stop me from hearing and listening to other people. I believe that energy follows thought and that we can manifest what we want in life. I love art and nature and environmentalism, but I love technology too. I'm not afraid of change or new experiences, but I approach with caution.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to enjoy coffee, drinks, food, and company with people from all over the world!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Like I said, I love nature and art. So, when I worked on the farm every day amazed me. Seeing a bird in a nest, seeing a storm roll in, seeing a giant double rainbow, watching a baby lamb recover, soothing a spooked horse, training a dog to do tricks. I'm sure I've done some cool stuff, but I'll let you know about it when I meet you.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning is what I think keeps you young. I'm a certified Yoga Teacher, I have learned so much through travel from agriculture and cultivation to art and metal work. I love to cook! Currently learning French and Spanish!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think conversation and company, yet respect, and privacy are the most important thing to grant a host. I also would love to share yoga, food, art and music with my hosts or guests.
