CURRENT MISSION

I’m on a living spree…..2010’s New Year’s resolution was to eat more shrimp cocktail & drink more champagne, it was a success.

ABOUT ME

When I travel I want to go to the nearest salsa club, yoga studio, art show, coffee house, used book store, concert, beach, park, or organic restaurant. Put me on a bicycle to get there. I want to make a few friends along the way & we can people watch without judging, share our food & eat with our hands. I don’t care what you do for a living, tell me about what makes you feel alive. I want to hear about relationships gone bad & your favorite music. Let’s put or ipods on shuffle so we can listen to our favorite jams, turn each other on to some new music & we can talk about how they make us feel & who they remind us of. Let’s talk about food and our undying passion for all things cuisine. Let’s let our eyes roll back in our head as we moan with satisfaction over breakfast & then talk about what we want to eat for lunch. Let’s pick up some good wine, put on some music & whip up a killer meal or we can just hang out & see where we end up as we share our passion & enthusiasm for life.
I bless my food, meditate & am a confirmed New Age hippie. However, I still eat meat & swear like a trucker. I don’t expect anyone to be perfect & I acknowledge my own misgivings. Life is so much more fun when you have the freedom to “F” up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This (Jan 2011) is my first time surfing. I don’t currently have a place for you to crash, I am very sorry. However, if you are in Fiji any time between now and July of 2012, especially the big island of Viti Levu, than I can totally hook you up with some stellar and generous people. I am originally from Cleveland, Ohio, US, so if you are headed that way, I can tell you the cool places to roam depending on your likes. I know a lot about Columbus, Ohio as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I met the percussionist for the Wailers (as in Bob Marley and the)while I was jumping rope at a rest stop. We had an affair & I toured with him & the Wailer for a week.

I was raised in the carnival. My parents had rides, games, food etc. I worked in it for almost 20 years.
