About Me

CURRENT MISSION

play, make, explore

ABOUT ME

I'm an interdisciplinary artist, writer and translator. I recently moved from Brooklyn to a goat farm northern California after bouncing around the world for about half a decade, with stints in in Italy, Peru, New Hampshire, New York, Ghana, Cuba and California and adventures in France, Benin and Togo. I'm a city girl at heart but also love farmstead life and have always wanted to learn more about cheese- so now I find myself elbows deep in goat milk trying to perfect the craft. I love food, photography, reading, writing, eating, playing and travel.

I have been an exchange student with AFS and Rotary and am so grateful to the families that have opened their homes to me.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what you want when you want.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will be sure to share a story and cook something delicious and delightful.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing has made some of the best cross-cultural experiences. I have only surfed in Paris but my hosts were marvelous and made my spontaneous trip really remarkable. While living in NYC I had a lot of surfers lined up but for whatever reason not one of my guests made it to my couch.
