About Me

CURRENT MISSION

always striving to be more silly

ABOUT ME

I am very open minded and hard to offend. I welcome anything new someone has to teach me. If you're a kind person and you're in the area.. lets meet for tea, coffee, a drink, a hike... perhaps blueberry wine in the tree house. I love theatre, music, and creative souls. I'm addicted to madlibs.

PHILOSOPHY

Never censor yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've just relocated from Vermont to New Orleans. I can't host overnight at the moment...but I'd love to show you around (i'm new to the city myself but love a partner to wander aimlessly with....and i do know a few key spots!)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have slept on many couches, floors, bathtubs etc... It's a wonderful feeling to be out of your comfort zone and in a new location. I have yet to host a surfer but have attended gatherings and stayed with a couple amazing gals.

Interests

music, theatre, nature, Lena Horne, really great fiction, writing, dance, stones, fort building, poetry (especially live)... my last meal would be seaweed sald, almonds, and black liquirice. Swing music, dirty scary electronica..we should just talk.
