I love to learn and to help other grow. I am compassionate and forgiving and simply look for people who will be in my life and love me for who I am. I am accepting and seek to make people smile whenever I can. Doing random acts of kindness makes my day and hopefully brings a little joy to others as well. I identify strongly with Samwise Gamgee.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I know what it's like to need a place to crash and not have the money. As soon as I have my own place I will be happy to host guests.

Interests

I love to learn from animals and nature and the people that do not get to tell their stories often. I have a passion for justice and mercy and I dedicate time to educating myself on the struggles of others and how I can be an ally and not a hindrance. I like to knit, cook/bake, blog, and go on adventures.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like just about any music, my favorite movies tend to be ones about fellowship and loyalty.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have snorkeled in the world's second largest barrier reef. It was beautiful!

Teach, Learn, Share

Listen to animals, they know people better than you'd think. Learn from plants, young or old they all have a lesson you can learn. Never underestimate the power of your words. Speak with love, protect others, help them grow.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A safe place, a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on if need be, warm hugs if desired, and good food.
