An idealist, with an obsured amount of hobbies and way too much time on my hands. I have no idea what I'm doing with my life, so I move around a lot, and write songs about it to make me feel better existentially. I dance, I sing. Sometimes I paint pictures and I love to garden. Yoga is my hero, and sharing the knowledge is very fulfilling.

Currently living in California.>>> And trotting around Australia, Indo and Asia for the next 3 months.

PHILOSOPHY

The world belongs to those who let go...

Life is better barefoot.

Read Books!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with beautiful strangers in foreign places, and gain a new cultural perspective from a far less conventional format as staying in a hotel would be :)

MUSIC is EVERYTHING to me,
I love me some good ole country twang. Psych rock jam band styles are fun... I'll be a Grateful Dead junkie forever... Anything blues/soul related.... Most every 60s-70s rock/folk band singer/somgwriter you can think of, Jim kweskins jug band is pure joy... Paul Simon is my idol.
I like weird experimental electronic music. House music . Dark alley jazz. Indian/Sufi music. African/South American beats when I'm feeling wordly. And anything with a Kora in it and some tribal drums.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The time I've spent alone living in a little yurt in the mountains of NorCal with my coyote neighbors. And when I lived in the jungles on a farm in Kipahulu, Maui... Harvesting coconuts and banannas all day, swimming with humpbacks, dancing with fairies...
Traveling/camping all over the USA.

Teach, Learn, Share

I do private yoga lessons, but you can also be my thai massage guinea pig if you dare, I can serenade you, cook for you, clean for you... Be warned: I have serious ocd over dirty dishes and kitchen upkeep in general.

What I Can Share with Hosts

You will be more than welcome to stay with me anytime in the US... whenever I settle and decide to start paying rent again. :)
