CURRENT MISSION

to Inspire as I have been Inspired

ABOUT ME

After redefining myself at mid-life and resigned from 20+ year Day Job, I moved after living in Portland OR for 25 years. Landed in Santa Fe, NM where I went to "qigong school." Now certified and teaching, which is all I want to do, but also work in restaurants and as an art model to pay da bills.
Traveling is a major passion. And the Travel Gods are with me.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest!
Respect all life.
Care for our home planet.
DO SOMETHING!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new, but look forward to involvement. Finally living where I can start offering a couch in order to reciprocate.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started couchsurfing after having been introduced to my first stay when traveling with my son (to The Burn, actually). I was blown away by the concept and hospitality and trust. It has been awhile, however . . .

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A bit of travel to Europe many years ago. Have been to most U.S. states. Gave birth to three children. Hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. Went to Burning Man for the first time in 2009 and again in 2010.

Teach, Learn, Share

Would be happy to share my Qigong experience - a self-healing form of moving meditation. Very amazing and powerful. Also, gardening.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Qigong, life experience . . .
