New to CS! I am an artist and teacher from Philadelphia currently traveling about Japan!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in cross cultural sharing, and acting outside of your comfort zone!

I am seeking to meet and explore with new people who also love travel. I appreciate anyone who is seeking to make travel an easier (and cheaper) opportunity for others! I am very mindful of other peoples space and practices, and love to learn from others what they do in their day to day life!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can aid in artistic expression, I am happy to help cook, clean, build, garden, babysit, and put my hands to use in any way possible!

Hopefully, differences in natives tongues don't prevent friendships from evolving! Communicating non verbally with people of various tongues is something I particularly enjoy about traveling. Many of my deepest and most heartfelt interactions have occurred through a language barrier. Any and everything can be shared if people are patient and open!

"The garden of love is green without limit and yields many fruits other than sorrow or joy. Love is beyond either condition: without spring, without autumn, it is always fresh"
