Adventurer, acrobat, and teacher.

Been on couchsurfing since 2007 and love the community I’ve met here from all corners from Turkey to Tibet. I love listening to stories and observing how each of us experiences life in inspiring ways.

I'm a wild spirit at heart, naturally curious and always seeking adventure. Movement is a big part of life these days mainly in the form Acroyoga, dance, yoga and soft acrobatics.

I'm also quiet, reflective and enjoy finding solitude to recharge and explore within. I enjoy refining my understand of the world around me as much as I enjoy deep conversations which touch on personal stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have done my share of hosting and surfing over the years on CS over the last decade and met some incredible individuals.

The best part of my travels has always been the unexpected thrill of connecting with open-minded strangers and finding moments to play, connected and be brutally human.

I'm looking forward to meeting more people who resonate on the CS philosophy of sharing and exchanging our lived stories and evolving cultures

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Celebrating a Newroz (New Years) in Diyarbakir with half a million Kurds surrounded by the Turkish army and jumping over pits of fire!

Joining a sky burial in Tibet. Witnessing a human body consumed by vultures (back to the sky) and the bones given back to the earth. Terrifying, confronting and surreal — yet how we relate to death inspires how we live.
