CURRENT MISSION

To experience each day like it is my last, to do my part to help save the environment, and to be a loving, peaceful human being.

ABOUT ME

I try to be a loving and balanced human being. I love to travel (like most people on this site!) and have been traveling throughout the Middle East for over a year now. I'm not more stationary, teaching English in Adana, but still try to travel around as much as I can. More than anything, I'm taking this time to explore and learn things I cannot possibly learn from a university.

PHILOSOPHY

Just be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love the concept and hope to host lots of people from all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a few surfers at my flat in Adana but haven't surfed myself yet.

Interests

I love so many things - traveling, cooking, dancing, singing, hiking, doing yoga, swimming, collaging, gardening, reading, making music, permaculture and local foods, sustainable living, traditional crafts, women's rights, relieving world hunger, all religions, animals - especially cats and goats, and many more...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
