About Me

I am here to connect with other beings and communities interested in raising collective consciousness and having good times as I travel. I am an interdisciplinary artist, composer and singer, theatre maker, writer, dancer and performer. I'm also a healer and combine my creative work with my knowledge of holistic healing with the aim of bringing some peace and light into the world. I love Prince... so much. I am queer, liberal, and enjoy connecting with people from all walks of life. I am currently traveling the world and intend to explore the creative hearts of the city I enter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

On couchsurfing to stay with and create connections with new people and communities as I travel. My mission is to leave the world more loving than when I entered and so evolve myself into the best version I can be to fulfil this. I believe creating genuine connections with a diversity of people is one of the most powerful ways to achieve this. I intend to explore the creative hearts of the cities I enter and hope to make beautiful connections as I go. I love live music, performance, cooking, live performance, hanging out, going to galleries and being immersed in the culture of the places I visit, am open to new experiences. I am NOT on couch surfer for dating or hook ups, I repeat, NOT here for hookups.
