CURRENT MISSION

learning to embrace [my] humanity

ABOUT ME

As life would have it, I am back living in the city I was born in, Fairbanks, Alaska. I came back for grad school, and after completion, found a job teaching 8th grade. I am always down for an adventure. And as much as I like to travel, I like to have a place to call home.

Music makes me very happy, and I'm happiest behind a camera. or frolicking. or making things. or art creating. or learning something new. or playing a pickup game of basketball.

PHILOSOPHY

Pronoia.

They say destruction is a crude form of art; let's all be artists and burn from the heart.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

love to host. love to surf. and always love to meet up with other surfers. I also enjoy sharing stories of travels and trading cures for the wanderlust that I regularly suffer from.
