Hey there! I am an actor/circus performer with a voracious appetite for books and new experiences. I spend a great deal of my time outdoors. There is nothing quite like being surrounded by trees and earth; it really puts me at ease. I also love film, and gelato!! I try my best to make gelato a apart of my everyday life. Calories be damned!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am seeking out new people with whom I can have exciting experiences. I want to connect, to learn about you and your life, and in the process evolve into a more worldly and compassionate person. Also, having a friend in an otherwise foreign place is a comfort.

Interests

Super avid runner, I love to hike, explore my natural surroundings.

I am a great lover of theater, and any other kind of art, but performance arts are my absolute favorite. This is includes devised theater, burlesque, contemporary circus, and some musicals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmm.....Given myself up to Love, fully and unabashedly.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't know who it is I will become in this life, but I hope that along the way I am able laugh, inspire others, inspire myself, love with every part of myself, create beautiful and ugly art that challenges the status quo, push myself beyond my comfort zone, so that others may also see what is possible.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share warm conversation, an empathetic spirit, laughter, and unbridled enthusiasm. I am very gentle and energetic. I do not want to waste one minute of my time on this planet. Not one opportunity to connect with another human being.
