ABOUT ME

if i were an animal i would hope to be an octopus because they are flexible, intelligent, and pros at interacting with their environment, too bad i can't change colors!

PHILOSOPHY

pretty passionate and often intrigued by simple things. a firm believer in being present. the glass is half full and i can't stop the waves but i can learn to surf!
from the moment of commitment nature conspires to help you - bjork
there's nothing more powerful than an idea who's time has come -saul williams

EVERYTHING CHANGES - lots of people

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

ask for help, look for ways to help, connect. it's the small things but participation is how we keep sharing alive. my default is food redistribution projects, non-secular meditation retreats and street art but i'm always on the lookout. Now that i'm settled for a little while i am so excited to offer a couch, community, and pay it forward.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

mind-blowing! people are amazing everywhere i go. i traveled a bit as a kid, lived in an art space full of travelers and free-thinkers as a bigger kid, and spent all of 2011 couchsurfing in the states.

兴趣

i love nature, crafty projects, quotes, photography, psychology, philosophy, fractals and metaphors, being useful, ephemeral art, chalk, dancing, meeting people, challenging myself, biking, hiking, flying, board games, learning through experience, and cardboard trucks.
