Overview
About Me
Hello!!!!
I am a person, and so are you! We already have so much in common.
I love humans and all other life too. I love stories and colors and beauty and ugliness.
I've been volunteering at farm animal sanctuaries in Australia and New Zealand in the last year and now I'm a traveling house-sitter and writer/artist, so I'm mainly looking for couchsurfing between house-sitting jobs!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am here to meet people and share stories! I am here to feel safe and welcomed in unfamiliar places, and to make familiar places exciting. I'm socially anxious but human interaction is a beautiful part of life.
Interests
I'm really interested in anarchism, alternative currencies, communal living, just generally finding ways to make life better, easier, less isolating, and more fulfilling for everyone.
