About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to feel alive!

ABOUT ME

I am a girl. I mean woman. Wonderwoman. I am a wonderwoman born in the wrong era. In the wrong place. Destined to search the globe for my home in time and space and community....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am here to help create a community where real people can thrive. If anyone ever needs anything, ask "and I'll be there!....You've got a friend!"

Interests

Someday I want to hike the Pacific Crest Trail (along the West Coast of the U.S. from Mexico to Canada). If anyone knows about it/has done it/wants to do it with me, talk to me!

  • cooking
  • yoga
  • knitting
  • hiking
  • mountaineering
  • languages

Music, Movies, and Books

Current Fave Book List: The Shadow of the Wind, Lady Chatterly's Lover, Perfume, Atlas of the Human Heart, etc, etc, etc.....

I like independent, foreign, artsy movies that sometimes make no sense and sometimes are boring but beautiful and sometimes rock your socks off, like this French thriller I saw recently called Them (Ils in French). SO SCARY! But maybe it was just my mood...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Baby goats being born!

Teach, Learn, Share

Some things I can do: build fires, read, cook (not especially skillfully, but I could teach people with less experience than me), make apple cider, yoga, make french braids, take and develop b&w photos, etc.

Some things I want to learn: how to speak many languages, how to knit skillfully, how to be a mountaineer, how to hitchhike safely and effectively, etc.

Countries I’ve Visited

Cambodia, Canada, France, Indonesia, Italy, Laos, Mexico, Netherlands, Peru, Spain, Thailand

Countries I’ve Lived In

Ecuador, United States
