Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To live, learn and be free.
ABOUT ME
I am a resident of Texas, in the USA. I dislike it here, but am making the best of it. I love traveling and languages/cultures of other areas of the world. At any given moment, I can spike a new interest and will put forth much of my time to learn/master whatever it is that has peaked my interest. Because of that, I have MANY interests and have acquired a fair amount of various - almost amusingly different - skills/knowledge on those things.
I'm a mother and I am very kind. Although I read people all too well. I thoroughly enjoy helping others - but I won't be made a fool of by a degenerate.
I enjoy the outdoors very much, although I can not be out in the sun for too long. :(
I'm also a terrible swimmer - but working on it when I can- but love the water.
I am currently with a wonderful man, whom I live with, travel with and do just about everything else with.
PHILOSOPHY
I am very...em, anti-government. I'd like to think I govern myself very well without government interference.
I am not religious myself, I hold a few basic beliefs (I respect the earth, those who are respectful, and common sense/science.) but I think religion CAN be a beautiful thing when used appropriately. I.E, not as a tool for war or violence.
I'd much rather be with an odd crowd that focused on equality, life, and education then to fit in with a mass of idle-minded idiots just wasting life away with nonsense and hatred.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have had my first couchsurfing experiences just recently, in ireland! And it was great! Still have more to go too!
I hope to be able to host people as well, although i know I'm not in the most touristy part of the states...
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Dublin, Ireland - FANTASTIC!
Ahakista, Ireland - WONDERFUL!
No bad experiences yet...
Interests
I'm trained in a few forms of martial arts, and love it.
I'm a dancer- belly dance and burlesque. Although I'm currently pregnant and not dancing =p
I am an easy-going person and I very much love learning new languages and cultures. I am interested in so many things - I love making things, like clothing, jewelry, etc. I love reading, learning, cooking, and writing (music and words).
I love animals! I'm also vegan, but that's my choice and I'm not out to alter anyone elses way of life.
I love tattoos and piercings - I have many.
I love medical science and physiology.
I'm a composer and I play lots of instruments. My first was guitar, then flute, and my ultimate love (although guitar is very very close) are the great highland bagpipes. I need some new pipes - maybe one of you couchsurfers will be in the bagpipe-making business? ;)

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: Saw (Up until the last ones...), V for Vendetta, A Clockwork Orange, Silence of the lambs, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Fight Club, and lots more... I like Horror and Comedy most. I'm not fond of science fiction.

Books: Jitterbug Perfume, Human all too human, Occultism books, When you are engulfed in flames, Psychology books, Books on real crime, ...I have a decent collection of things I have enjoyed reading.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach- Music, writing (to some degree - I'm no world-class writer), cooking, jewelry making, anatomy...and a lot more if one were so inclined to pry into my brain-box.
Learn- Everything. Especially if it's a bit odd or useful. I'd love to learn how to make bagpipes from a real life pro!
Share- As much as I can.
