About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"Life's not worth living without taking risks; and knowing that you lived everyday to live, not just exist

ABOUT ME

Sometimes I would rather stick my finger up my nose than put a tissue up there. I'm a little odd at times but only because most people take life too seriously. I hate being comfertable. I love venturing out into the unknown. I love to make people smile and giving someone a reason to enjoy life. If the weather permited it I would sleep under the stars everyday of my life. I like to garden, even more I love to grow food. I think that there is nothing more rewarding than to make a lovely meal with a great harvest from your back yard, however its much more of a blessing when it is shared with a good group of friends. Someday I want to replace my broken down car with a unicorn, and when I grow up I want to be a teacher, or a caterpillar....

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness is not having everything go perfectly, happiness is looking past everything that goes wrong.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I always have friends that are looking for workers on their farms. Housesitting is also another one of my means of travel. I am a certified permaculturist and a master gardener. I could always do a site assesment for anyone who needs it or wants it. I am also a great house cleaner and can provide any relief around the house
