I am a curious, playful, passionate spirit. I am a seeker of truth, love, and intimacy with self, other, and the divine. I am deeply spiritual and my holistic growth is my priority always. I love, study, and practice yoga (of all kinds), meditation, shamanic and energetic healing, Mayan womb massage, herbalism, nervous system trauma work, psychotherapy, etc. I love to spend as much time as I can soaking up the natural world- hiking, photographing, laying on the earth, creating art out of vibrant flowers and decaying leaves. I choose to surround myself with beauty. I love yoga, tea, cats, reading whole books at a time, singing kirtan, gardens, sacred geometry, treehouses, ceremony and ritual, dancing, sticks and stones, the sun and the moon, making art, my community, learning, listening, loving.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To save my money for what matters (hotels, ew), and hopefully to provide a good couch when I'm settled!

I use couchsurfing mainly when I travel around the country to do trainings. I just had some great experiences while traveling in India with couchsurfing- so grateful for this site!

Favorite music- kirtan, medicine songs, folk music from around the world, dubstep- Anything that makes me feel the pulse of its truth. Music, singing, and dance are some of my favorite methods of connection and expression.
