CURRENT MISSION

become a mer-creature

ABOUT ME

I'm an artist and I'm usually juggling a bunch of different projects- I love costumes and elaborate creative endeavors, but quiet and low-key situations are good too.

I work mostly in photography and sometimes in video, but I really do a little of everything. I paint and make masks, clothing, costumes...I have made jewelry, textiles, scupltural stuff, multi-media performance pieces....

I like movies with fantastical themes--but I like all kinds of things. I like to dance.

Currently, I'm traveling through Andalusia, Spain and will be here for the next several weeks. My plans are open but I'm interested in experiencing emerging art scenes, national parks, local coffee shops...anything really.... and meeting people who are interested in meeting me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't hosted anyone yet and don't even have a couch to offer at the moment but I hope to surf and host a lot more over the next few months.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

so far I have been able to travel to a bunch of exciting places and have met cool people all over the world. I have stayed with hosts (not through CS) in Mexico, India, and Western US and totally loved each experience... today these people are my good friends.

I don't have a lot of experience with CS yet, (I'm working on it) but so far so good! Hopefully you'll help me out with this :)
