ABOUT ME

I am a fully qualified homeopath, and registered with the New Zealand Council of Homeopaths. I love animals, birds - all creatures. Can't tolerate injustices towards animals, people and the land. War is the worst crime imaginable. I have a part time job with a company that promotes and sells homeopathic remedies to chemists and health food shops.

PHILOSOPHY

One human family... I'm here to network! I love to meet new people and for them to meet my Chch friends and family, and can link people with resources when they want them. I believe that we need a new social system that is NOT based on exploitation - then we may be able to create a more nurturing ethos. I live my life to interact with animals, gardens, fires, food and people - all ages - and materials/artefacts - clay, paint, instruments, tools. I believe in speaking out and standing up for what I believe in. I love my environment to be colourful - deep, bright colours.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I have participated in CS as a host and networker, and guest. I have pets (3 cats and 2 chickens). So if you are allergic to cats, be aware.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted lots of couchsurfers before the earthquakes. Since then, pretty much none. Just looking at couchsurfing again now....
