CURRENT MISSION
Deciding whether or not to leave the country permanently
ABOUT ME
I live with my boyfriend in a spiffy RV in Santa Cruz. Having wheels is great we cruise all over California. I am a freelance videographer/ virtual real estate agent and music monger.
I just graduated from college with a degree in Tele dramatic Arts and Technology. I am finding life outside of College to be veryyyy interesting, I am still getting used to it...
I get my kicks playing any instrument I can get my hands on. I really love percussion and I can rip it up with the best of them. I play anything from Didgeridoo to Sax... Good times
I like to long board, surf,and snowboard. I am prone to epic back packing trips. And acts of random kindness. I love a good adventure!
Oh one more thing.... I've had my Couch surfing account since I was 17... Some of the info I haven't gotten around to changing into my current self, it's kind of a time capsule...Man 8 years goes by quick!
PHILOSOPHY
Let it go... As Above So below, as within so without.
you live you learn, put your nose to the grind stone, if it walks like a duck quacks like a duck its a duck. Read between the lines. Just breath. and a million others.
Oh yes and my favorite: "where you going?" "I don't know, crazy I guess, wanna come?"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Well, however I can.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I toured all over Europe and stayed with several lovely people. I had a great time. I really made sure to choose people that had a lot of references, I felt that was the safest way for me, a lone woman traveler, to utilize Couch Surfing to the max. It so far, has been a wonderful experience, and I look forward to using again sometime in the next few years. Thanks everyone who gave me a place to lay my head, I miss you all!
Interests
I enjoy many different things. I suppose I fly from one new experience to another. I play several instruments four of which I play well(didgeridoo,hand drums, saxophones of all sizes and native american flutes, and voice thats an instrument right? hehe ) the others I am still learning.(violin, harmonica, the drum set, scottish rhythm bones). Out side of music I am interested and actively participate in a plethora of physical activities. I am an avid long boarder, in the surf and on the concrete jungles of California, soccer, taekwondo, horse back riding.. But I am also interested in things like rock climbing, para-sailing, hang gliding, kite surfing.. I want to do it all, I suppose I am an adventuresome spirit...
I spend most of my time making movies, or producing movies/commercials for other people.

Teach, Learn, Share
Well. I can teach you to fish a stream in Northern California, and how to circular breath on a didgeridoo. I can teach you how to play the beautiful spontaneous native American flute. Hemp Jewelry, and saxophone lessons. Perhaps we could exchange some beats on the djembe! I absolutely love and adore learning everything and anything you have to offer me, ill eat it up. And cook you dinner in return. ciao!
