About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Being the change......staying positive, practicing kindness in action, forgiving myself and others regularly, and being an all around ladyboss and lightwarrior.

ABOUT ME

I have many loves in life: cooking great meals, community and friends, social permaculture, dancing, fermentation, festivals, photography, traveling, hot springs, and conscious connection. I am an outgoing extrovert, but I also like one on one time with people. I am always working on developing myself, and I believe in the goodness in all people.

PHILOSOPHY

Radical honesty, kindness, have a good sense of humor, be able to recognize and let go of the things that don't serve me anymore, and to look at life like a joyous dance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to organize and network, so I help to facilitate workshops and teach things like fermentation, movement/dancing, and conscious connection. I help to organize the Fun with Fermentation Festival in Eugene every year. I also love to pour my heart into good food, and organizing events that bring together community w/ a focus on food, learning, dancing, sharing, music, and fun.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been a big couchsurfer w/ a lot of my friends for years. I have lived out of my car for several months at a time as I've skipped about the western United States camping and staying w/ friends and family. I am self sufficient, polite and respectful, and like to contribute something, like helping to prepare a meal, or even if it's just a positive interaction or conversation w/ my hosts. I clean up after myself and often leave a place better than how I find it :)

Interests

Food, Fermentation, Ecstatic Dance, Social Change, Permaculture, Healing, Community, Travel, Organizing Events and Facilitation, Festivals, Connecting with new and old friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

I generally read non-fiction: personal development, pretty much anything food-related, and I love to learn about permaculture related things (natural home-building, right livelihood, community development, gardening, etc.).
I don't have a t.v., but I do love movies. Especially comedies, documentaries, and independents.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Started a pop up cooking school for festivals called The Nourishment Lab

Teach, Learn, Share

Fermentation, Dance/Movement, Conscious Connection/Play.
I would be interested in more hands on ways of learning new cooking skills, nutrition, beekeeping, anything permaculture related, nature, science, philosophy, and new forms of dance and movement.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking, Knowledge of Fermentation, Nutrition, Raw Foods, Etc.,

Countries I’ve Visited

Costa Rica, Dominica, India, Japan, Kiribati, Nicaragua, Thailand
