I'm a bibliophile that loves cats, my list of passions, interests and goals is never ending and includes sustainable architecture, organic gardening, being a librarian, fostering children and animals, traveling the world, and learning something new every day.

My current mission is to make new connections with interesting people the world over.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

To meet new people, have fabulous conversations, make friends and be of service. I really enjoy helping people out and having guests. One day I hope that others will be so kind as to do the same for me.

兴趣

Tree hugging, dirt worshiping. Random acts of kindness. Learning more about myself and life every day. Meditating and creating.
