About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore and cultivate new experiences on this green Earth. To live and to love!

ABOUT ME

Good day! I am a young and free spirit. I passionately believe in unconditional love, wonderful adventure, and a new friendship around every turn. I love to play and explore. I love creating and learning new musical styles, and sharing in the craft of another. Life's all about the experience of experimenting :)

PHILOSOPHY

I live because I was given the gift life, and I make my greatest effort to give life back into the Earth on which I was so lucky to be born to.
Love & Light.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just surfing around the towns I've lived in, I suppose. I've met wonderful people who have taken me in at times of need, and simply times of fun.
I am pretty much a fresh canvas to this!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Rejuvenating sunrises over Maui, Canada, Mexico, and the crisp cool waves of Lake Superior, my home.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to share my humble amount of Songwriting, picking up an instrument, harmonizing, and what I've been fortunate to learn of recycled crafting and holistic healing- healing properties of foraged herbs.
