My name is Michelle and I love art. I am a painter.

I love Mother Earth. I am passionate about gardening, herbalism, and permaculture.

I am interested in philosophy, deep conversations about what matters in life and on our planet. I am also about having fun. I am quite self-sustained and really enjoy my alone time, but like to change it up and share with those I come across on my journey.

I find that every place I travel has unique gems and beauty. Discovering and uncovering this brings me pleasure and tranquility.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am a traveler, on a budget. Lack of cash is one of the main reasons why more of us don't travel!

Every experience I have, and all who I meet can enrich my life in some way, and I wish to do the same for others.

教，学，和分享

I recently returned from 5 months of travel in Mexico and Guatemala. I learned about the Aztec side of cacao (What chocolate is made of!) and actually was lucky enough to participate in "Chocolate" ceremonies!

I know how to make vegan, healthy, DELICIOUS chocolate.

I am learning herbalism and permaculture.
