About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Cycle around the Balkans in the summer with Ecotopiabiketour.net!

ABOUT ME

I'm finally a full-time traveler currently in Europe. I'm passionate about meeting new people, discovering new places and experience different projects on anti-capitalism, permaculture and art. I've now traveled in 32 countries, mostly overland and hitchhiking, and secretly want to be the first woman to travel to every country in the world without flying (the first person to achieve it was a British man just a few months ago).

PHILOSOPHY

If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution. -Emma Goldman

The role of the revolutionary artist is to make revolution irresistible. -Toni Cade Bambara

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted travelers while I was living in the UK and Mexico and now I'm looking forward to find hosts in different places in New Zealand.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It has help me a lot on my low-budget trips and it's a great way to meet locals and get to know more about the places you visit.

Interests

Traveling, organising (on Climate change, Anti-capitalism, Veganism, Anarcha-feminism), social change, nature: the beach, sunsets, the Northern lights, experiencing all kinds and forms of art, especially dance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled through 14 countries in Asia and Europe overland on an activist campaign against climate change.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe the world would be a different place if we weren't afraid of getting to know each other, share what we have and what we know and build communities.

I can share my experiences on how to cook and bake vegan, hoopdance, play the guitar. I've carried out many environmental education, climate change and feminisim workshops. One of the main things that I like is to talk about anarchism and horizontal organising.

I'm also trying to focus on learning french and getting better at playing the harmonica and ukelele (want so much to start a band with my best friend).
