Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To accept myself and give others permission to do the same.
ABOUT ME
I am a pretty quiet, self contained person. I always have two or three things to do in my purse, and a million thoughts in my head. I can be talkative and excitable when provoked, but I'm more of a party goer than a party thrower. People i know would describe me as sassy, straight up, funny and serious. I'm a Type One in the Enneagram- the perfectionist at my worst, but a strong sense of awesome at my best. I've never been particularly skilled at fitting in and I secretly enjoy being noticed for my creative wardrobe and hairdo choices.
PHILOSOPHY
As long as I've had a good sleep, good food and I'm close to a bathroom, I'm down to try most new things at least once. Sometimes I require a bit of hand holding, but my feet mostly move by themselves.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have stayed in quite a few AirBnBs across western europe... can I say that here?
Interests
I think a lot about personal development and interpersonal psychology. Right now I'm fascinated by the Enneagram, Integral Theory and Nonviolent Communication.
In my spare time I like to get creative with art, music and writing and spend time finding inspiration outdoors. I'm a pretty physical person, but more the tortoise than the hare. I have recently discovered crossword puzzles, I enjoy puns and handwritten letters.

Music, Movies, and Books
I am a romantic. I read books and watch movies over and over. On shuffle, I have Diana Gabaldon's The Outlander Series, Marion Zimmer-Bradley's The MIsts of Avalon, I have watched Charmed three times through, and I enjoy Buffy & Angel. I have read lots and lots of books on relationships and dating and psychology... too much to list! A lot of my books are on audible so I can knit at the same time.
I'm overtaken by 5Rhythms. I love all sorts of music, from classical, to punk to country and super old mountain music. I like to play pieces written in minor keys, and I have a special place for the Irish Bodhran.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hummmm.... I was the sole witness to twin goats being born once... and helped birth a few human babies too. I used to run a business encapsulating placentas for mamas post partum... and I was paralyzed from the waist down during my teens. I've seen a lot of people fall in love, and some people fall out. I'm a lucky dame!
Teach, Learn, Share
I am happy to help with household chores or provide a good bit of dating or relationship advice. I've also been a doula and french tutor, if the need arises! If monetqry compensation is needed I'd be happy to talk about that too!
