CURRENT MISSION

To dance my way through life, picking people up on the way and meeting others who have a thirst for creativity, life and traveling.

ABOUT ME

I just returned from living in Bordeaux, France for a semester to study Art. There is art everywhere- from people's faces and expressions to the way the paint peels off of the old front doors of the apartments. I want to continue finding beauty and art everywhere, which involves seeing new places, meeting new people and getting into some (good) trouble. Now I am back in the goole ole US of A, living in Isla Vista, CA. I am in my last year of school at UC Santa Barbara and really looking forward to the next year of living in my little incubator before...yikes.. I have to step in the "real world."

PHILOSOPHY

The most important thing: breath. After that everything else falls into place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love the idea of a makeshift community and finding comfort in new and strange places. Couchsurfing is so cool because of this... I embrace this with open arms.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed in Europe while I was traveling through France and Spain.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many things to see and do! Everyday I realize how much there is for me to know and see- but so far:
Feeding elephants in Thailand
Getting flashed by a ladyboy (trany) in Chang Mai
Eating dinner with a rural village family in Thailand
Dancing until 6 a.m. in Paris
Eating an incredibly decadent and chic French dinner for 3 hours
Sitting on the steps of Sacre Coeur as the sun sets
More to come...

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to cook for you, do yoga with you and run around!
