About Me

CURRENT MISSION

If you take care of the earth the earth will take care of you. I love volunteering, learning/teaching. I want to travel the world and expand my family/friends. I would love to help gain justice back to the natives of the lands.

ABOUT ME

Rule #1: PLEASE DO NOT JUDGE ME BASED ON MY GRAMMAR AND SPELLING ERRORS!
I think that verbal in person communication is key so I have an ear for languages rather than writing and reading.
(Since I speak English I can pick up German and Dutch, because of Spanish I can figure out Portugues, Italian, and Frrench, because of Hebrew I can figure out Arabic and Hindi, and Swahili is a mix of English, Spanish, and Arabic) It is all in the body language!

It is hard to explain myself, since I have many stories. This entire profile doesn't even do justice. My goal is to achieve cultural competence so I am very flexible and adaptable (mentaly physically and spiritualy). I can be really goofy or really seriouse, I like to go where the river takes me, and love having deep conversations. At the same time I love to have fun like a child, full of innocence and love and criousity, and energy non stop to play and run. I am like the yin yang sign, always trying to stay balanced and stable.
LITTLE TASTE OF ME THROUGH A POEM:
I am not straight-haired. I am curly. My hair is my signature. I prefer not to live in a straight line. I am spiraled. The average Abercrombie jeans, Ugg boots, and Coach purse are too basic. At only five feet I stand out, with my home-sewn, patched up pants and my tidied shirt. I prefer to keep it lively with a shine. One can tell that I have all different kinds of waves of life just by the many pins decorating my blue jean jacket. I am twirled. I donâ

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is holistic (including what I write) and it is through community/ecosystems and with in community there is communication and with out communication we can't make more connections. (never ending circle) Life is a cycle! I have a thing for the letter "C"!

Dance=life There is music everywhere all you have to do is listen. For example the pulse of your heart. This is the rhythm that moves life. If you have a beat which you must have if you're alive then you can dance. Dance is what connects us to the earth and each other and ourselves.

You are constantly moving/ dancing why not have your thoughts be like a dance as well, balance if you move to the left you must step to the right, life doesn't have to be a one way straight line! It can be in a spiral, which is going up like the rising sun. Look at the butterflys they are even dancing as they eat!

I believe that it is more important to be a jack of all traits rather than master of one.

Live like you are going to die tomorrow. Be in the now!

Fear/ignorance are symbiotically related and rule most of the world saddly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If you are interested in traveling to the places I am going or places I want to go, I would love a traveling buddy!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Havn't hosted yet but plan to a lot in the future, no one should be left on the streets while traveling..been there done that..not fun!

Interests

Put it this way I love anything that involves being active socialy, and physically. There is no way I can write everything!Most importantly DANCE I can dance for 3 days or more straight with only 2 hours of sleep each day! I am so full of energy! Been doing it for 14 years all types and the ones I don't know I want to learn. Dream: learn the folk dances of every country. (through dance you can learn the entire culture) BOARDING (in my favorite order: surfing, snowboarding, longboarding) interesed in learning the other board sports and tricks since I am more of a cruser. NATURE/OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES, climbing trees, hiking in the forest, biking, star/cloud gazing, camping,gathering (would like to learn to hunt, just being one with the earth through meditaion walking rather than using gasoline. Love to learn about animals and plants and how to help them from becoming extinct. MARTIAL ARTS, took karate (green belt) and Thi Chi for 2 years. Starting to forget since it has been 2 years since, would love a buddy to practice with/ work out with boot camp style. COOKING/BAKING, I would love to learn to cook underground and using a solar oven. I love cooking on an open fire with many helpers, the more hands the merrier. I used to bake 3 cakes a week when I was 8!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lets have some anticipation and wait to share stoires around the bonfire!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love the exchange of knowledge, and am interested in learning things I do not know and more to add on to subjects I do know. I love learning new languages, dances, how to cook differnt cultures foods, and how to play different instruments. I also love all of the natural and social sciences. But most importantly learning about the person I spend time with.

I love to share and teach in return. I know a lot of what I am interested above and about how to keep a healthy body in natural ways. I am very aclectic and had a lot of experiances for my age so ask me anything! If I do not know I would like to find out!
