About Me

I'm mostly working right now, as nurses do.
I am polyamourous and living with my husband and two cats, who are always happy to have more humans around to serve them.
I like hiking and figuring out how to live off of nature, conspiracy theories, food and punk. I (sadly) live in an apartment but I fill it with plants for both eating and looking at. Veganism is important to me and has been for about 14 years now. I enjoy cooking, like A LOT, and I show my appreciation for people by cooking or baking for them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel, but in a more welcoming way than by living in a hotel or hostel. Open to host as well!
I am trying to live by the philosophy of being vulnerable and kind and to ask, because some wise lady wrote in a book that "those who can ask without shame are viewing themselves in collaboration with - rather than in competition with - the world. Asking for help with shame says: You have the power over me. Asking with condescension says: I have the power over you. But asking for help with gratitude says: We have the power to help eachother" and I think that's pretty dang smart.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love a lot of books and can't really choose just a few! But I can re-read all HP-books as well as anything by Scarlett Thomas or Ben Aaronovitch.
As for movies I love horror and anything old as heck with no budget.
I listen to most music but punk will always have a special place in my heart.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked by the shore between two Irish cities and completely lost track of time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a lot of knowledge about a lot of things but not a lot of it is actually useful to anyone. I can share some conspiracy theories though! Like did you know Sasquatch actually is the one to blame for all those sunken ships in the great lakes? Well, now you do.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Facts that noone really care about but that my brain somehow still obtained instead of learning maths. If you like tattoos, I am pretty good with stick and pokes! There's a sewing machine you can borrow, or I can help you if anything needs mending.
