CURRENT MISSION

I want to understand.

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in Asheville, NC.
I successfully relocated in Fall '13 from Iowa and it was made possible by CS. I am now looking to go further! I'm ungrateful that way..

I'm just beginning to travel this world and I am just so excited for all of it.

PHILOSOPHY

I got a good fortune cookie a while back :) "Seek first to understand and then be understood."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm still pretty new to CS but have made connections that led to living situations and not to mention new friends. (Through friend's account.)

Interests

Creative expression, music of so many varieties, psychology, biology, sharing, listening, sewing, painting, drawing, jewelry making, moving forward. And (chances are) You.

Some new developing interests for me are
Rocks! Minerals! Gemstones! (Okay just digging in the dirt..)
Costumes, special effects, cosmotology
(Playing dress-up?)
Tiny Living and School bus conversions :)

Oh, my companion cat interests me a lot, haha.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amazing things are happening around me every day. I'm getting better at seeing them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to learn more about: Gardening/sustainability, Making things out of other things(wood, leather, metal), playing music(specifically guitar), cooking, rock climbing, traveling. Archery!!!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Time well spent full of giggling. A little bit of awkwardness. A listening ear. A nice hug. A favor returned, in one way or another. My sincere grattitude. Some restful nights of sleep; knowing you helped someone live their dreams and furthered their search for their purpose a little bit more.

If you have children or pets that benefits everyone involved! I wanna play with 'em!

If you want someone to do crafts and listen to music with or go on a hike with. I'm your dude.

If you just want an unbiased stranger to hear that thing you just wrote; that's the stuff I live for.

If you want someone to debate politics with, or better yet, a room full of people to yell over eachother; no thanks. That makes me all sweaty and sad.

But If you're really homesick right now and just want to talk about your home planet - I've always wondered - What's the weather like there this time of year?
