About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I have been working on honing my minimalist lifestyle and now want to kick it up a notch!!! Gaining experience teaching Yoga and meditation and spreading as much joy as I can inspire. Hope to start a business teaching Yoga in the wild. Amassing skills at the rock gym so I can take climbers on expeditions as well. .

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My head and heart space are my home I just need a safe space to keep them when I rest my eyes at night. I thought perhaps this would be a great opportunity for perspective. New people with stories different from my own. Connecting with people who believe in sharing and community. I'd like to be creative and outside of my comfort zone to strengthen my practice and save for more teacher trainings in far away places. Help me grow!!!

Interests

Just about anything outdoors perks my curiosity and they come with stories so I'd love to hear yours!
I can geek out with the best of em' bring on the sci fi and tell me about the easter eggs in the latest comic book film.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have spent the past 10 out of 11 years working with at risk youth youth in various outdoor settings. Some indoor only and some Adulting. People ranging from PTSD/trauma, to behavioral struggles. Learning differences such as Add/HD to asperger spectrum. I worked in a home for folks with mild retardation and developmental disabilities. All these folks came from affluent families and straight up poverty.

Over half of that time outdoors I spent living either on trail in cabins or on a ridgeline saving money to hike the northern portion of the CDT. I've met amazing people in my travels and would love to continue to do so.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Yoga meditation chat or just be pleasant company. If you've got a project and need some help I'm up for it too! I can share my strength and help you with projects. I think any experience we share will be learning and I consider every moment an opportunity to learn something new.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My experiences, Love and Kindness, I can listen as well as share.
