Hey there! I'm Shaina, I recently finished my studies in anthropology and geography and have been working on farms and traveling as I continue on a path of merging food sovereignty and healing work. I love dancing, growing food, long talks, cooking, and connecting with people and places. I like learning from mysteries and seeing what sorts of synchronicities occur when leaning into them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Using Couchsurf makes me feel at home wherever I'm visiting, and I really value having the opportunity to get to know people through the unique vessels of their front door, their kitchen table, fleeting moments…

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked in Børselv, Norway (up in the arctic circle) on an organic farm, taking care of sheep and a few greenhouses. Nearing the darker months of this period I got to lay in the snow after bringing the sheep back to the barn and watch the northern lights.
