CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

a california native, i love traveling to ancient pyramid sites, volcanoes, medicinal hot springs, going off the beaten path, hiking, camping, surfing, skydiving, and enjoying the company of like-minded individuals, with an appreciation for the crusade of good clean fun! sometimes im a yoga teacher, a raw food chef, a nanny, and a holistic nutrition student.

PHILOSOPHY

l.if.e. (love is for everyone) , if you don't climb the mountain, you can't enjoy the view,

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i love cooking creative meals, i love the challenge of a gourmet 3-ingredient dish, have been a raw food chef, but also love asian and mediterranean cuisine..basically id love to cook you a meal, do your dishes, show you around my city, explore yours, or share an interesting conversation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i must admit i havent had much experience here. most of the people that would stay at my Seattle house (under heather nicholl's profile) were from australia, new zealand, or europe. we always had fun cooking meals, conversatin', and showing them seattle. the only time i have stayed on some one's couch was with Jeff in Medford, capitol fellow, and an all over pleasant time.

Interests

i love pretty much everything, the whole of our human experience is fascinating (im a psychology major!) i enjoy music, art, yoga, different perspectives, snow and mountains, sun and surf, reading everything, ayurveda, sushi, laughs, hiking, exploring, sharing, burning man,doing puzzles, crosswords, scrabble, knitting, and of course...traveling!
