About Me

CURRENT MISSION

April - July 2016: currently on extended trip starting in Menorca, to Paris, to Greece, and then to Bilbao where I will begin the Camino de Santiago.

ABOUT ME

I am an adventurous, drum playing, clothing designing, rock band leading, bike loving travel girl superstar

PHILOSOPHY

you're only as informed as the people you've met and the places you've been....I want to be as informed as possible!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have hosted in the past, currently engage in CS by surfing and encouraging friends to host travelers

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted a bit in Portland and really loved it. Couchsurfed around Europe, India, Ireland and England for two years while WWOOFing. Nothing but absolutely fantastic experiences with amazing people!

Interests

sewing, playing music, reading, traveling, meeting people, exposing myself (to new experiences! duh!), enlightening discussions, hiking, swimming, bike riding. And laughing, I love to laugh!

Music, Movies, and Books

live music is great (to be a part of the energy) - I like punk, rock, funk, jazz, soul, banghra...pretty much anything that grooves.

Movies that inspire and enlighten, smashing the senses and challenging our sensibilities: the killing fields, the wind that blows the barley, what the bleep do we know, The Seventh Seal, The Trip, Cabaret, Tootsie, Exit Through the Gift Shop

Books: Electric KoolAid Acid Test, Ender's Game, Hell's Angels, Eckhart Tolle, Tao Te Ching, Animal Farm, Omnivore's Dilemma, 1984, Catcher in the Rye, Marquez Garcia, so many more...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two years backpacking and all the strangers turned into friends - it just keeps getting better. Riding the natural waterslide in southeast France. Gondola into the Himalayas. Celebrating Holi festival in India. Planting trees in Auroville. Managing organic gardens in France.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach me window box farming, joke telling, how to make a generator from bicycle parts. Learn sewing, cooking, and we can do some wheat paste graffiti art together!

Share stories about adventure and sustainable living.
