About Me

CURRENT MISSION

it's impossible...

ABOUT ME

I'm confident, expressive, and love life.

I like.... making food for people, cards/nerdy board games that ensue in laughter, impromptu gymnastics routines, sailing, windsurfing, high-fiving, going to the farmer's market, growing things, cutting hair, making art....

I cry easily if things are happy or sad, and I laugh easily.

Swimming in lakes and rivers makes me happy.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything and everyone is connected. I'm not dogmatic, but practical. I like a lot of Buddhist philosophy. I believe in taking care of others and yourself, being active, exploring, taking risks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In life, I guess I'm a pretty nurturing person, and I'm involved in lots of community things.

I'm an existentialist and humanist to the core, so I believe in helping people have a fulfilling, fun, healthy time here.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Both as a host and a traveller my experiences have been awesome. I love cs.

I also once rode a couch down some stairs with a friend at a very rowdy party. Does that count?
