Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Come alive.
ABOUT ME
Traveller, singer songwriter, coach and teacher. I'm looking for community and ideally a caravan of musicians and dancers and workshop givers to travel around and give concerts and workshops on releasing authentic voice and movement.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've been informally couch surfing my whole life, at relatives places in various countries, and at friends in different countries whom I met whilst traveling or through other friends. This is a great way to expand that web and make traveling a more personal experience for everyone involved. Rather than just looking at cultures from the outside, CS gives you a chance to live it from the perspective of a local.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Have couchsurfed in my 20s and accepted surfers in my 30s.
Interests
Permaculture, especially social permaculture, life skills, healing ancestral trauma, healing sexual trauma, creating/transitioning to just nurturance culture, making music, dancing
I'm really just into getting to know people, hearing their stories, telling mine and building cooperative nurturing community that allows us to transition away from this broken one. I believe women's creativity is key in this.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Oh so many! Exploring the masai mara in a 4x4 with a local. Carrying twins to 38 weeks (lol trust me, an amazing feat). Skydiving. Learning classical dressage. Learning to connect (re-connect) with mama earth and my own womb. Too many things to name. The world is an amazing place!
Teach, Learn, Share
Some things I can share...English, cooking, life skills/self-realization, knowledge of the structures of the world, random knowledge. People say I am grounding and hugely informed and helpful. I'm a coach too so I'm good at helping you make decisions or even take steps to follow through on dreams!
