CURRENT MISSION

Figuring out which way is up

ABOUT ME

I love a good tears-in-your-eyes, stomach cramping laugh. That along with a great book, a hammock, and a peaceful, sunny day.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in early mornings, hugs, smiles, love, knowledge, passion, and the healing power of tea with friends.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed for the first time in Bologna while I was studying abroad and I met some fellow surfers when I was studying in Perugia. When I relocated to Santa Fe my roommate and I had a wonderful time being hosts and showing people around New Mexico.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

One summer I drove to northern New Mexico where we camped on the canyon floor. From our position on the top of the mesa the next morning I could see for miles and miles and in that space, not a single sign of human impact. I was inspired by the overwhelming sense of something completely wild and untouched.

I have also witnessed a miracle. But that's a story for another time.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I know a lot about art and how to make sushi and I teach hatha yoga. I also speak passable Italian and would love to practice!

I am always interested in new recipes and creative ideas. I would love to know more about sustainable houseing and agriculture.
