**I just realized that all the couch requests I have been receiving did not arrive in my e-mail inbox! So I may have a very poor response rate but all this time I thought I was getting no requests! Sorry to have missed some great connections! :( ** ABOUT ME I was born in Switzerland, grew up in Canada, and have lived in different parts of Canada, most of all Ontario. I have found a great home in Guelph, Ontario, where I am part of a vibrant community. I am a writer, dancer, theatre-maker at heart, and it is my goal to pursue these arts as a way of having my conversation with the world. I believe art to be very therapeutic and hope that people can access it as a way of growing their own self-expression, and that I can help people find this. I am very reflective, and often take a lot of time to think. Nature is my breathing place; I love mountain hikes and walks in the forest in great amounts. I am learning a form of dance called contact improv, which I think is a powerful way for people to connect authentically. In general I like to find ways in which people can find deeper connection and feel truly self-expressed in connection. This is a hope and intention that I bring to all the connections I make.

I think it is a great model for people who love travel and don't have a lot of money or want to find a way to connect with others to do so, and hopefully add value to their trip by making good connections.
