CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to find my longer term mission. I'm working and educating myself and deciding how to best contribute to creating new systems and transitioning to a more positive, sustainable way of life on a large scale.

PHILOSOPHY

Every person is responsible for their own health and happiness, the health of their communities, and stewardship of the planet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I discovered CouchSurfing through my sister, who has surfed in a few places. We moved in together in May and have been hosting since then. I have friends who think it's very strange to let strangers stay in your house, but I love it; it's the best and least awkward way to meet new people that I've found yet. Everyone who's stayed with us has had a story to tell and most have had other food/fun times to share.

I'm also obsessed with spreading the Spokane gospel, since I see it as an under-rated city. Getting the opportunity to show it off to people from all over the world is most excellent for me.
