About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling the world, teaching dance and having a wonderful time.

ABOUT ME

NOTE: I don't currently have a couch (or home, for that matter) right now as I'm travelling around the world - so I'm not really participating in CS right now. Sorry!

I spend about half the year in San Francisco and about half the year in Europe travelling around and teaching dance workshops. Most of my time in Europe is centered in Zurich where my teaching partner is located, and we travel to other cities on the weekends to teach workshops.

I have a cat in my life. And she's my family. Which means that I travel with her, since I spend about half the year travelling. And yes, I know that's weird to most people (though I don't completely understand why..)

PHILOSOPHY

Freedom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted literally hundreds of people, mostly from the dance scene (approximately 3000 guest nights). I live in more "flexible" situations now so I don't have an actual room to offer anymore, so this profile is a bit on hold right now.
