I’m an interdisciplinary artist with an emphasis in tattooing and photography; I am also a 500hr certified yoga teacher and spiritual director. Currently traveling and living out of my van in Aotearoa, seeing where the wind, my heart, and loved ones call. I am excited to tattoo people and create art along the way!

From 2023-2025, I lived with my partner on a beautiful property in San Diego/Kumeyaay land where we hosted friends, warmshowers travelers, Couchsurfers, traveling musicians, and other wanderers. We are all learning how to Be together in this world, and Couchsurfing is a way to embrace each other with trust and love!

I love Couchsurfing because it feels like participating in creating the world I want to live in. I also see it as a spiritual practice of sorts, being able to offer safe, warm, loving space to those who need it, whether for one night or five, as well as being the one seeking safe and comfortable shelter and community :)

*****zero tolerance for transphobia, racism, homophobia, ableism, xenophobia. If I am hosting you, if unaccepting or violent language/action towards marginalized groups is used, you will be asked to leave. If I am staying with you, I will leave the space and find another place to stay.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing feels like a separate world where people treat each other the way we were created to. I think hospitality is the start to creating a society where we realize how beloved we all are. It is a way to experience culture and people in an authentic way where you just have to put it out there that you need help and shelter, and people respond. How beautiful is that, that through vulnerability and asking for help, we connect?
