"Ships are safe in harbor, but that's not what ships are built for." - unknown, but wise and true

Purpose-driven, eclectic, fierce, maternal, loyal, devoted, thorough, dependable, adaptable, independent, determined, organized...I've been told that I can be hard to read at first, but once you get me you've got me I'm very loyal. Generally a very generous person. I was born a city girl, but I've learned to make a home wherever I find great people. I"m pretty into yoga and meditation, love talking about all types of design and hearing about people's journeys in life both travel wise and spiritually.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to host people while I was living in Morocco. I've participated in meetups a few times. Now I'm hoping to experience another side of couchsurfing as a surf during my first trip to Australia.

Interests

I get to know a place by walking it or driving it on no one's timetable but my own. I enjoy nesting, but while I like to set down roots and build an intentional home for myself in the world, I would go crazy without weekend getaways. I'm a big people-watcher so cafe cultures suit me just right. When I'm in a rural place I love to hike, kayak, and bike. When back in the city my favorite thing to do is search for cool events and people to attend them with. I love hosting potlucks and bartending for friends. I grew up a dancer so I'll try anything one from aerial yoga to surfing. I recently finished up a business school which I used to transition into the unlikely career of design consulting after years of doing that work on the side so I'm pretty into learning more and more about my new field at the moment.
