About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hi! I'll be traveling state to state, leafleting at colleges for Vegan Outreach. I'll be handing out literature with info about factory farming, trying to spread compassion for animals, and educate as may people as possible.

ABOUT ME

Hello! So I have never couch surfed before, but I will be needing to find a place to stay every night for a few months starting in early september 2014. I am vegan, traveling to spread information on how we can reduce cruelty and increase compassion. I am a painter also, got my degree from Temple U. I live in Philly and have 3 ferrets. I'm 24, like to go on runs for exercise, and am planning to try to keep that up while traveling.

Some examples of bands I like: Damien Marley, Starfucker, Neil Young, Elliott Smith, Pinback, Grateful Dead, Mazzy Star, Dispatch, Old Crow Medicine Show, Joni Mitchell, Pink Floyd, Smashing Pumpkins..you get the picture.

I'm pretty flexible about most situations, can adapt. I love meeting people and find it easy to get along with most people. I am looking forward to meeting you all!

PHILOSOPHY

I feel that life is ideal when we can extend compassion and understanding to every being around us. That is why I choose to fight for that same mentality towards all animals. Farm animals are often overlooked, treated as a product, not a sentient being, so if we can speak for them, as they don't have a voice, through education, individually choosing where we give our money (aka not to corporations we don't agree with) etc, we will spread compassion and reduce cruelty.
