Hi! As of May 2024 I'm trying to get my low response rate back up! 🙌🏻

Please read disclaimer at the bottom of my profile

I'm B'Nasia, I also go by Bee 🐝

I'm 26 years old and have returned for a 4th year to live/work in Gardiner, Montana for the summer season. It's a cute little town! Gardiner faces two large mountains the closer to us is called Sepulchur and the farther is Electric peak. It's an amazing view!

I work in a hotel as housekeeping and front desk. I'm also a new henna artist!

I live in a little studio that I love very much.

I'd say I am a person who is inquisitive. I like to ask the good questions. I am often reflecting on the experiences I've had, and in what ways I have grown/changed. I try to follow a mix of stoicism, thich nhat hanh, and non violent communication. I teach myself how to do things the right way. I am striving to live with intentionality in all aspects of my life. I believe social media to be a very toxic use of my time. I'm also very grateful that cats exist.

I love having unique experiences with amazing people I meet along the way. Sharing stories and learning about new cultures is so addicting. I am a travel extraordinaire and have been to 16 countries so far.

I have many hobbies when I'm not traveling such as:

🧶crocheting/ knitting
🛌 napping
📖 reading
🎨🎭 anything artsy
♟️chess
🥊kick boxing
🥾hiking
🌱🌿 gardening/ houseplants
📝 journaling/ scrapbooking
▶️ watching animated YouTube videos/films/shorts
👩‍🍳 cooking
🍄 foraging
✍️writing
🌠 star gazing

This is a safe place for feminists, women, lgbtqia+, and poc. CDT hikers are also very welcome!

If I cannot host you please message my very good friend Samuel. We are neighbors 😁

⚠️⚠️⚠️DISCLAIMER ⚠️⚠️⚠️

I am not on here to date. I will not be kissing anyone etc. I will be very uncomfortable if anyone tries to "make a move." I've had enough of those experiences. If you are a man, set a good example. Thank you for your cooperation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love broadening my perspective on the crazy world we live in. There's so much diversity and I want to at least scratch the surface on all the groups of people that exist.
