About Me

I just recently healed from cancer with plant medicines in the Jungles of Peru and now I am looking to see more of the world. I have a background in healing, I am a creative person, a great cook, I love long conversations, exploring, adventure and meeting new people. I'm also really easygoing and a great communicator. Lets hang out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in traveling and discovering new territory not just as a tourist. I learn so much more about the world by meeting new people and I love the open exchange of trading.

Interests

Reading, writing, Hiking, Sewing, cooking, playing music, watching great films, playing, laughing, trying new things, meeting cool folks, rocks, making art, dancing with reckless abandon, learning, plants (big time), getting lost in a new place so I can find my way around, eating, and lots more.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list! Lately I'm loving the films of Alejandro Jodorowsky, Always a big reader of Richard Brautigan. I'm a big cumbia fan but this very moment I'm listening to Captain Beefheart. I don't know what to say, I like it all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The coolest thing I have done with my life by long and far was getting rid of all my belongings to come to South America, living in the jungle, and successfully healing myself of cancer.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm working real hard to improve my Spanish right now. I would love to trade anyone for Spanish for English lessons! I am also a certified Yoga Instructor, Reiki I practitioner and have training as a birth doula. I'm not really into the dogmatic new age scene but I do have quite a lot of experience in healing with plants as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a grateful and considerate guest. I'll keep up a tidy space, cook ya dinner, I'd love to trade languages, teach yoga, babysit, garden, read tarot, do some energy healing, hang out, I'm pretty flexible with whatever you may need help with....
