About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To become un-stuck in time

ABOUT ME

I'm an artist, I always make studio room anywhere I settle for long, I'm also a big reader and love writing, and being outdoors when my busy schedule permits. I'd have to say one of my favorite ways to get to know people is over food, I love to cook and I love to eat, after all the kitchen is the heart of the house.

Currently, I am committed to building on my travel experience, I am lucky enough to have jobs that make it easy for me to travel seasonally and often provide me with housing. This also makes me more of a couch mooch because it's going to be awhile before I'm in a position to host or have a car/ address/ hometown. This is going to be an interesting few years because even though I love travel I'm also a bit of a homebody and when I do have a regular address I typically garden, do my own canning, and keep up with a bevy of home based projects.

I also love letter writing and would love to keep up with people I meet through surfing.

PHILOSOPHY

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
-George Bernard Shaw

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently just surfing. I have no regular address so hosting isn't a possibility, but I'll be up for coffee whenever I'm in a place for a few months.
