ABOUT ME
Quiet, gentle, pretty easy going. I value nature, our earth, and the biodiversity and different cultures within it. I like to make music along with listening to it. I enjoy horseback riding and bike riding, yoga and dance, gardening and cooking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It is an excellent and rewarding experience to learn and share with others of our homes.
Interests
My favorite things include cats, sleep, and sunshine. I do not like raisins.
I prefer bicycle as my primary mode of transportation. I've even worked as a pedicab (that's a rickshaw or bicycle taxi) driver. It'a a lot of fun, but also a lot of hard work. It's also a great way to stay in shape! Another way I stay fit is through rock climbing. I'm a novice, but it is so much fun and very challenging in so many ways. I think of it as dancing on a wall, figuring out how to move the body in new and creative ways to get to the next hold. Which is great because dancing is my passion! I practice all sorts from ballet, modern, afro-haitian, and whatever else may come my way.
I'm very into nature. I think we all should be because well, we are nature. I love the ocean, the mountains, the prairies, the swamps.
