About Me
ABOUT ME
Sorry, too busy traveling myself the last bit and into the near future so can't host at the moment!!
Love meeting new people and seeing how they 'do life'. Have moved around a lot in AB and BC and currently on beautiful Saltspring Island, BC. I have traveled throughout the US and W. Canada and Quebec. Have sold everything once just to travel in an RV. I am into everything alternative and fit into no box...I am anti-box!! I seek to live life to the fullest with my 3 children!!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Same reason I go to garage sales...I never know what I might find! I went to a garage sale house and bought the garage...and the whole house! To meet new people, to share my house and town with them. To have new experiences.
Babo came from Italy and was going to stay 5 days and ended up staying 3 weeks! We had a great time and he surely would say he enjoyed his stay.
Karen and family of 9 came for an undisclosed amount of time and stayed 6 weeks!! We had quite the adventure with so many in our space and shared many wonderful experiences together.
Medhi came for 5 days and was at a workshop most the time and we shared lots of nice connected conversations in the evening over wine and chocolate.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Cycle Toured BC a few times and went down some road from Pemberton BC and hit 73km/hr!!! I have a photo of my speedometer to prove it! And I lived to tell about it...
Teach, Learn, Share
I can share my english language and I can share my friends and knowledge of the area. Lots of yoga, dancing, hiking, meditation on this island...organic food, farms to visit, beaches, organic restaurants with green juices and smoothies...I make water kefir and love to make ginger 'beer'...just a fermented drink which is very healthy and yummy. I have a very transparent way of being in the world and love to share on deep levels with people and connect very easily. I love to laugh and enjoy easy going people who don't take life too seriously.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I am walking distance (1km) to town and have some space for a tent only right now as inside space now full. Bus in town takes you anywhere. Love sharing island info. and creating warm and welcoming experiences.
