About Me

I am excited about traveling again, for I love meeting new people in beautiful places. I also love hosting people and showing them things I love about Maine. I am also very much into the healing lifestyle. I learned to heal myself and enjoy sharing my experiences with herbalism, energy work, shamanic journeying, organic food, music, Native Tarot, and a variety of creative processes on the healing path. Happy to share wisdom in these areas. I'm also a tall ship lover and enjoy being in a place where we have a tall ship fleet. It's a beautiful and rare thing to see them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to provide an experience of Maine that is memorable, healing and worth sharing with others. I also want to stay in places with like minded people who are on similar paths.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently spent 3 years learning to walk again. It was the Mt. Everest of my life, a chrysalis of healing that changed my life in every way. It's why I do what I do now. Now I'm a farmer, herb gardener and remedy maker crafting products that help balance and support people on their journey to wellness.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm all about it. I can show you how I live the herbal farming lifestyle. Because most of the herbs are perennials, it's a bit more laid back than other kinds of farming. Things grow slower and come back every year. I make awesome 20 ingredient salads from the garden on my farm. I can show you how I seasonally grow these greens ingredients and we'll go pick our salad for dinner, eh? Whether it's spring and we're getting fiddleheads, summer and collecting roses and blueberries, or autumn and time for elderberries, we can go foraging here on the farm and also visit some nice places to view the ocean.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can show you what you have growing in your area and help you learn to use it in a practical way.
