CURRENT MISSION

*Have to update this, it’s been a while. All of this but in less words.

Being present and being human intentionally. My mission is to experience the fullness of life through the paradox of relationship. To attempt to add value to the life of people I meet as well as receive insight and perspective that will help me expand and grow. I like being around people who live intentionally.

ABOUT ME

Visionary. Risk taker. Community focused

Solitude is of utter importance to me, so I enjoy being out in nature. I am also a conversationalist, I create conversation classes for English language learners as well as writers and thinkers. I love being challenged in my ideas and ideals. I also laugh a lot, as much as I am thoughtful I am silly, being joyful and thankful for everything is a core value of mines. I am super easy going and a very go with the flow type of person, I believe an inconvenience is only an adventure rightly perceived, so not much unsettles me.

PHILOSOPHY

Be present, know yourself, reflect and love people. I hope every encounter can help me to expand my capacity for love and I can gain wisdom from the interaction.

I believe relationship is the most powerful force in the universe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting other humans, although I am very open to alien lives also, no judgement. 😂 I am half alien too. I like meeting dope people that do dope shit. I love the power of stories, I'm utterly drawn to them, the way people tell their stories and how their story has shaped their worldview. I surf to experience the essence of life through relationships and stories in many ways. I've been recieved by some of the most beautiful people in my travels and those experience have shaped who I am today.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed quite a lot in my life before it was actually cool and they made a website for it. I've always been a wanderer my entire life. I've Couchsurfed all over the states and made some of the most incredible connections around the world. I have friends all over the world and I feel I'll always have a place to stay through the relationships I've made.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many.. Um...Hiking around the world. Being able to hike in Canada and jump in below 0 water in my underwear. Twas cold.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach-I am a writer and poet at heart, words are my forte. I teach cross-cultural relations, writing and poetry. I also host Open mic poetry events in Bogota. I am also TEFL certified English teacher, so I can offer free English help if needed. I can also teach poetry and social science.

Learn-I love languages, so anyone who can teach me linguistics and the psychology of language I'll be utterly fascinated. I love learning history also, and just learning in general, I'm all ears.

Share-I can share my music, my poetry, my words, my strength... my being. I also help people plan long/short term goals consistent with their core values. As a visionary I can offer these things.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am quiet usually unless I am provoked to conversation and I ask questions. I have a lot of different life experiences to share and I love music. I play piano, guitar, and I sing. I can offer great conversations on philosophy and cross-cultural relations. I am outgoing and I love to explore.
