CURRENT MISSION

creating pleasure, beauty, and magic.

ABOUT ME

I'm a writer, musician, animal lover, farmer. I am a vegetarian, queer, social justice oriented, and poly-fabulous. I enjoy cooking, bicycling, punk shows, reading, volunteering, the great outdoors.

PHILOSOPHY

I can't imagine capturing this in a box. Here is my attempt: We are all interconnected, human, animal, flora, fauna, moon, sun, ocean, sky, and we would do well to act like it, with compassion and love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It has been a long time since I have been an active member on CS. In the past I have used CS to find places to stay and to meet new people. I have enjoyed CS meet-ups, and met users for coffee while they are traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed in Arizona and met some amazing people. We remained friends the duration of my time in AZ. I have also attended meet ups and visited the CS camp at the national rainbow gathering. I have hosted couch surfers in my home in Detroit and hope to do it again. Its a great way to meet people and expand your worldview.
