About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live a life of love and purpose

ABOUT ME

I love adventure, meeting people, life stories, and quiet moments.

PHILOSOPHY

"Who are we, to keep this love to ourselves, anyway?"
"You've got to live your life because no one else is going to live it for you."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I really enjoy helping people and supporting their desire to grow. I can't host at the moment, but I would love to support anyone who is passing through Milan by meeting up and offering helpful tips and tour guides.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a newbie, but definitely a wanna-be.

Interests

I love artful expressions in photography, words (poems/lyrics), music/song. I love dancing especially latin and ballroom. I enjoy reading and thinking about philosophy. I love to study humans, their relationships, and what makes them come alive.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A classroom full of about 40 Rwandan 3rd graders paying close attention to a math lesson on multiplication using sticks, books and rocks.

Supported a lemur in Madagascar while he jumped from my shoulders/head to a tree!

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach English as a profession, but study as a passion. I love learning about languages, cultures and relationships. I can share some practical skills (like the art of making chocolate chip cookies) and enjoy learning new ones. I would really like to learn more about herbs and nutrition for medicinal uses. I'm fascinated by living holistically but haven't yet discovered all the ways to do that :)
