Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In the Maya calendar, my birthday has a nawal (sign) that is called "Pathfinder" or "Road": https://imgur.com/TkmNq23

And in Western astrology, my moon is in Sagittarius which is about adventure and travel.

My mom's family is from Norway and my dad's family is from Mexico and Spain, and I grew up between two unique cultures and families in Minnesota and Arizona. My Unique Self Soul Print you could say was primed for travel and adventure before I was born. My parents camped a lot in the Superstition Mountains in Arizona and I'm pretty sure that is where I was conceived.

I believe Couchsurfing is a great idea, and I love humans who trust themselves to trust other humans. I am thankful for the verification requirements and options on the site and it's a gift of transparency, peace of mind, and predictability.

I do believe that we all have similar universal feelings and needs as human beings, and perhaps just when we think that experiences are unique to us, we go out and travel and experience this world we learn that humanity all experiences Outrageous Pain and Outrageous Love. I like what Bob Marley said, "One Love, One Heart" It's so true to me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I have done was talk with the singer of Deftones while riding bike along side him in Tempe AZ before their concert.

There have been many other interesting things as well, hopefully we can share stories!

Teach, Learn, Share

Please consider asking me questions, I have a lot of knowledge and informaiton I can share.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Depending on what hosts preferences are that would be unique with every expereince. I was a chef for years in AZ and CA so participating and helping assemble or cook meals is easy peasy for me, washing dishes is an opportunity for a mindfullness/meditation practice so I can enjoy that as well.

I write and sing my own songs, so if a host would like to hear my songs I am open to play and share them. If hosts also play music all the better, or if you just like to sing I would make up songs with you as well.

I love sharing and listening to the stories of people's lives that got them where they are today. I term them the "sacred autobiographies" and they are those choice point moments in our lives, where it set the trajectory for our soul's destiny in this life.
