CURRENT MISSION

Expanding the contact improv scene in Maine. Embodying my artistry.

ABOUT ME

I believe firmly in opening our homes and hearts to others, in creating a stronger global community, in traveling with the kindnesses of not-for-long strangers, in sharing our lives with one another. This inspires and feeds me in a very unique way.

PHILOSOPHY

When we share our homes, our hearts, our selves, we live in a culture of abundance, not scarcity, and we are never poor.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just getting started...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I recently visited Montreal and borrowed a woman's bedroom while she was out of town. I had met her for a night a few weeks prior, and her flatmates welcomed me into their home. The kindness and generosity of strangers is outstanding. I would never have been able to afford this trip otherwise. Then and there I decided to be a more active CSer.

Intereses

I love dance, improv, music (especially live music!), tea, bourbon, microbrews, medicinal herbs, wild edibles, cooking, eating, hooping, kayaking, swimming, hiking, biking, laughing, bodies of water, tracking the moon. I dream of sailing and beekeeping.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I climbed Machu Picchu in 2011 and almost cried when I reached the top. The ancient beauty of that place is astounding. And I am just as amazed by medicinal plants, like Spilanthes, a crazy looking plant that will numb pain and fight infections in the mouth and throat.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I am a budding herbalist, wildcrafter, and novice gardener, happy to share my knowledge and learn from others. I am a dancer and performing artist, teaching contact improvisation, creating works with Collective Motion dance company, and finding joy in movement. I love to cook and am always looking for new ways to nourish our bodies and souls.
