CURRENT MISSION

to surrender to the moment

ABOUT ME

I am 27 years old, I have been travelling off and on for the past 7 years. In my summers I like to return to British Columbia, Canada where I earn my living working on an organic orchard. I love music, I love to read, write and live life spontaneously! I am an active person, I love the outdoors, being in nature and getting away from the rush of the city! I am a vegetarian, focusing on eating healthy, meditating and spirituality. I love to garden and am hoping to learn more about permaculture. I am very interested in the Mayan calendar and culture and I am keen to expand my knowledge and awareness in any area that has to do with shamanism, medicinal plants, and expanding our consciousness.

PHILOSOPHY

"He who's not busy being born is busy dying" - Bob Dylan

I am striving to live life more in the moment, reminding myself that we are all constantly being reborn, that nothing is permanent except change, and that the only real love that exists is love with absolute freedom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy going to CS events in the cities i travel to. it's such a good way to meet other travelers. I have been so fortunate with the people who have hosted me and I look forward to eventually hosting many many people whenever I settle down long enough to have a place of my own.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i have couchsurfed in many different countries and i am hoping to meet and host more surfers in my time off from traveling in Canada!

Interests

I love music, i play guitar and love to sing. i love any music from jazz, classical, electronic, funk..whatever puts me in the groove! i have a collection of records i like to listen to whenever I'm back home and a stack of books to keep my mind constantly wandering. i like to travel because i think there's no better way to get to know yourself and no better way to make lifelong connections, whether it's with people or places.
