CURRENT MISSION

to lose myself so much in a moment that i forget there even was a mission.

ABOUT ME

helping others first, reaching out to the far corners of the world, learning something new each day that i can, trying to grow from the lessons without being completely molded by them, always leaving space for new perspective, staring at the stars often, with abundant appreciation, talking to the moon, eating more fruit, finding small wonders, celebrating said wonders, soaking up sunshine, playing this life like an instrument till my last baited breath.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i give freely anything that i have to offer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

new to this site today, but in past journeys, i've been lucky enough to rely on the kindness of strangers who have offered me a place in their lives for a brief time - creating everlasting memories. enjoy learning about a place from someone who is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about it - generally the natives. have learned the best of cultures from staying in the homes of kind folk in: italy, germany, switzerland, greece, scotland, england, spain...etc.
