Down-to-Earth gal into all things artistic, creative and spiritual. I work as a performing artist and sometimes teacher. Totally in love with the world, its people and creatures, and meeting them makes my spirit soar. I follow Buddhism and yoga, and believe in the love and joy inherent in every human. Trying in my modest way to leave a positive footprint on this Earth. Non-drinker, smoke the extremely occasional cigarette. Vegetarian.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
