CURRENT MISSION

My name is Jill, my current mission is to experience as many interesting moments in this life as I can. Jack Straw is on this adventure with me. Love to meet and connect with new people.

ABOUT ME

I grew up and live in the Berkshires, a magical little place in western Massachusetts. The town I live in is Windsor, a hill town with a population of about 700 people. It is about a 25 minute drive to Pittsfield or North Adams, an old mill town that was bustling during the Industrial Revolution, and now a flourishing art community. The area has plenty of art, cultural attractions, and nature. I enjoy yoga, organic gardening, traveling, music gatherings, sitting on my porch listening to records and drinking wine. I'm usually up for anything from a quiet night at home, a hike in the woods, or a rowdy night at dive bars! I like to go with the flow and love the adventure of what the moment brings.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat the earth gently and everything on it..plants, people, animals.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I have officially hosted and not yet surfed. At heart I am a couchsurfer and have surfed unofficially. My guests and experiences so far have been amazing...couchsurfing makes the world go 'round! Mi casa es su casa!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Awesome! Although I have only hosted, it has given me the opportunity to travel without leaving home. I love the sense of community and opening my home to others-it's a wonderful way to make new friends.
