About Me

Last spring I graduated from The Evergreen State College, Major: Environmental Science, Minor: Botanical & Mycological Medicinal Properties. Since then, I've been finding un-used clothes/fabrics and "upcycling" the materials, creating Hood Scarves and Belly Dance Bras (FB: https://www.facebook.com/goddessgear000?ref=hl). I was recently in a Tribal Fusion Belly Dance troupe for 3 years, it was a blast! The four of us ladies preformed at many spring/summer festivals, local markets and private parties. Currently an Upcycled Garment Designer & Garden Merchandiser. Overall, I am a young woman who appreciates the outdoors, creative and loves to dance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
