CURRENT MISSION - - ABOUT ME I have been living in Brazil since November 2011. I worked at an orphanage for the first year and now am trying my hand as the director of our organic farm! I LOVE (can I say it again, LOVE) working there and the community in which I live. I am starting to put my feelers out for the "next step" in my life, approaching it with a sense of curiosity. PHILOSOPHY HA! I feel OK leaving this blank...

Perché sono su Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I try to get involved in activities once in a while in Rio and am currently only available to surf on the couches of others. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE While at university, I was only able to host surfers. At other times in my life, I surfed at a commune in Costa Rica, lived for a month on a "couch" of an amazing guy from Krakow and also on a woman's couch in Montenegro - she made us coffee AND tea. :) I currently live in a community of between 20-50 people in the Mata Atlântica.
Musica, film e libri
:) I don't watch movies in Brazil... My saudade is really connecting me to the roots of my country´s music. I get funky, I get blusey and I get jazzed out with all the folkes who share the same land as I. I have turned into a voracious reader in Brazil. I read anything and everything I can get my hands on. I would love to share with you the recent best reads and tunes when we chat. Guilty pleasures: Zeca Pagodinho and Bezerra da Silva
Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
I don't want to kill ALL the excitement of hosting me! Let's talk and share more!
Insegna, Impara, Condividi
I will share the contents of my heart, mind and soul with you if the opportunity is right. OK, and beyond that, I will teach you to crochet, I will talk your head off about edible mushrooms of North America, and will share my living room philosophy. I am always looking for new things to learn to do with my hands! *Brazilian skills: Cheese making, reallllll goooood feijão, fermented vegetables and meats, fried...everything, Portugues (obviously), how to serve and love others genuinely, watercoloring ... the finely tuned craft of cow herding with bamboo?
I miei interessi
Recent interests: permaculture, chickens, bike riding, reading comfortably in Portuguese (new accomplishment), capoeira. I like to play outside, visit museums, be still, appreciate others, and (my guilty pleasure) take care of goats!!!
