Before there were hipsters, people used to look at me and say "oh, you must be an artist". I live a rather unconventional lifestyle. I started traveling at 17, hitchhiking mostly and later living in vehicles. I'm more settled these days and I mostly live in Vermont but staying in one place and doing the productive member of society routine is stifling and kind of exhausting... Every now and then I need to run off.

I am currently living in NOLA, heading home to Vermont soon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm new!

I'm trying to find something in between homeless traveling kid and grown-up artist lady. I don't mind being uncomfortable and kinda broke, but the older I get the more I want things like quasi-comfortable places to sleep and semi-regular showers 🙃

Music, Movies, and Books

Tom Waits, Múm, Man Man, Nina Simone, Taraf De Haïdouks, Nicolas Jaar, Kimya Dawson, Timber Timbre, Janelle Monae, Kurt Vonnegut, Charles Dickens, Neil Gaimen... The internet has ruined my reading habits, I'm working on disconnecting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent ten years hitchhiking the US with my dog

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company, especially of the fluffy, sweet doggo variety 😉, music, art, and stories. Plus I clean up after myself and do my dishes.
