ABOUT ME

I love life, the Earth, and everything in between. I love to help people in any way possible, especially through massage and yoga. I feel like it's my duty to become a healer. I love playing music (guitar) and merry-making of all forms. My goal is to have a positive outlook at all times. I love learning and asking questions. Health is an important part of my life so i like to eat as healthy as possible, but i will try anything once. Or twice.

PHILOSOPHY

Have as much fun as possible, with as much love and respect as possible. Every day is a blessing, so bless everyday with honesty, hope, and good intentions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

just moved into my new place. I hope to host soon, but let me get it together first

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couch surfing experience was in Guatemala City with Alvaro. I knew nothing of the city, so he met me at the airport. He showed me around, taught me about the country, and helped me travel on a chicken bus. Because of him, my trip through central america started off on the right foot, with set the pace for everything that followed.

Interests

The healing, martial, and cullinary arts of other cultures. Taking care of our planet and the life forms that share it. Learning and having fun the way the locals do. Expressing myself through music. Hiking, Waterfalls, drinking, Eating, Buddhism, Animism, any kind of -ism that isn't my own.
