About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to explore earth and meet people!

ABOUT ME

I'm an open book. I love all things music and art. I play guitar and sing and write songs and play with ink and watercolors, and I love so much I feel like a complete whack-o! I want to get to know you and where you are from and why you like it and how you feel about crickets.

PHILOSOPHY

Love Yourself Fearlessly, Breathe Consciously.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Traveling mostly. I live with a lot of people and we don't have much room for surfers at the moment. I look forward to hosting eventually.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A delightful two night stay in Austin, Texas. The discovery of breakfast tacos!

Interests

Making funny faces in the mirror, trying to get animals to cuddle with me, music, art, sriracha and goddess dressing over eggs and spinach, sriracha and maple syrup over eggs, rice and vegan sausage, Amy's non-dairy burritos dipped in Frank's hot sauce, spending quality time with people, reading slowly, vermicomposting, trying to keep plants alive.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My friend and I took the greyhound from Albany, NY to Oakland, CA and met a bunch of interesting people. I walked on a glacier in Montana in 2000. Every time I enter a butterfly conservatory I am awestruck! I saw Fishbone live, and it was the best concert I had ever been to until I saw Beck at the Mass MOCA last summer.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach guitar, some songwriting techniques, life drawing, watercolors and beginners yoga. I also learned how to thread hair, need yer face done?

I want to learn whatever I can absorb in one sitting! I am especially interested in permaculture and different spiritual beliefs.
