CURRENT MISSION

Be like water... and teach little ones all over the world

ABOUT ME

I firmly subscribe to the follow-where-you're-led mentality. I love to laugh, I am up for anything, thrilled to try new things, love to travel and most importantly, connect with new people. And for this reason, I would be delighted to meet/host you or anyone you know in my current city of Chattanooga.

PHILOSOPHY

Breathe
Love one another!
Whats mine is yours
All things come full circle; our life force is spherical, all is connected and the universe is always in constant motion, evolution.... which leads me to..
Live only in the present!
Maintenance of equanimity and awareness by practicing laws of impermanence; Like the wings of a bird, equanimity and awareness must be equal in strength and in size
People are inherently good (Couchsurfing has been strongly reaffirming this philosophy over and over again...)

兴趣

All things inspiring passion and a happy life

Some specifics: Dancing, crafting, story-telling, bicycle rides and street music. Eating mangoes and climbing mountains. Moonrises, the art of conversation and being a professional appreciator.

音乐、电影和书籍

Extensive. Music from all the most classical musicians to the most electronic, funkiest of beats. Anything that gets my soul moving through my fingers and toes.

Movies ranging from all bollywood (like Om Shanti Om, Dil Se, Salaam Namaste, Swades & many more), to Harold & Maude, the Goonies, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, Wes Andersons, up to the most recent Batman and Alice in Wonderland

Any books written by Salman Rushdie, bell hooks, Vonnegut, travel reads, poetry, The Mango Season, Into the Woods, Shel Silverstein... Really, these lists could go on forever

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

let's see... some amazing things... hiked Huangshan mountains, slept out under an endless canopy of stars in the Karacay desert, definitely slept in a dog bed before, swam in the most splendid hot spring in Santa Theresa, Peru, eaten the most delicioso tomatoes in Sicily and pizza in Naples, swam in the Mekong, walked with elephants in Bangkok, watched sunrises and sunsets in the U.S. midwest that people only read about in books, the hundreds of shades of blue in the Bay of Salerno on the Amalfi Coast... I've been so fortunate to see and do lots and lots and lots!

教，学，和分享

I can teach you to knit? Music exchange? hmm, cards?
