Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Non as yet ... excited to see who my first ever host/guest will be to get this ball rolling !!

Interests

I love people with passions, the power of plants, the particularities (is that a word?)of places and the principles of permaculture. I love music made from the heart and played directly to other people's. I love the outdoors and what people choose to do with their indoors.I love taking photographs, especially black and white. I love learning new things and sharing my knowledge with those who are interested. I care deeply about our planet. I love heading out into the hills, prepared for whatever the weather throws at you so you don't have to come back early. Feeling part of a community is important, but also like to have some sense of independence.I love the mutual trust, simplicity and unexpected riches you get from hitch-hiking. I enjoy helping to find solutions to big and little problems alike. I love the awareness of life changing moments and the process of making a leap of faith. I can't stand waste or bullies. There's probably a lot more, but I want to keep it brief.
