ABOUT ME
independent, spontaneous, fascinated by other people, with an overactive imagination. I love traveling and documenting my experiences: radio, video, in my notebook. Some of my more recent interests include alternative economies and barter exchange networks, free schools, and alternative communities.
PHILOSOPHY
Lately I have been taking thigs VERY day by day, creating a stronger sense of self by believing in the principles of kindness, synchronicity, and awareness.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I do not have a couch to host right now, but hopefully one day! So whenever I couchsurf I am sure to bring my conversation, humor, and energy for my hosts who are curious about America. I think there are new networks that are rising up from the ashes of economic collapse that will build a better tomorrow! I applaud couchsurfing and the connections you can make to help change the world by changing your perspective!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Some of my best memories traveling have been with the wonderful people who welcomed me into their culture and lives. Rock climbing in Spain, staying in an artist collective in Paris, and getting greasy fries at a diner in Chicago are some of the adventures I've had!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have traveled most recently in Iceland, and also Spain and France.
I've been to Mexico and Guatemala, doing the Mayan route and seeing some amazing ruins, also met great people. I also sometimes work on boats and I got to go through the Panama Canal which was pretty cool.
