About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live life for a living.

ABOUT ME

I am living my dream of building my house, growing my food, caring for the bees and all of life. I love it! I am easy going, determined and multi-tasking. Family comes first, friends next, land and low impact living. I welcome diversity, everyone has a story to tell. Live and let live. Be kind. Harm none. Smile often.

PHILOSOPHY

Hold wonder for life in all its forms and manifestations.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to couch surfing. Got wind of it through volunteers who have come to help us on our smallholding. Looking forward to trying it out for myself

Interests

Bees, the wild untouched pockets of nature, growing food, sharing views, meals, laughter. Learning more about myself. Stillness. A good book. Hope.
