I studied Buddhist practice for most of my 20s, in retreat centers and monasteries, and have led an unconventional life dedicated to truth and beauty. I have a lot of interests, from poetry, to different kinds of art, social justice and transformation, both deep conversation and silence, and being in nature.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I live a simple life, with enough, but very little money, and I would like to travel, at this time in my life, and learn from real people as I go. Soon, I am headed to Standing Rock and would like to meet people along the way as I wander that direction and back.

兴趣

I like Into the Wild, as a story, I like Tintin, and other stories of adventure and intrigue. I like hidden corners of the forest that I feel emboldened to explore when, right now, I look up out a skylight at the white sky and a dark pacific northwest tree swaying.

音乐、电影和书籍

Nico Muhly, Tori Amos, The Strokes, for some sense of my music tastes
For movies, funny things- I really like to laugh- SNL sketches on youtube!
For books, the book of my heart- and Midsummer Night's Dream.

Can you tell me what you really want?

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I am a contented person, who does what they say they are going to do, and will be upright, aiming to lend a hand where possible and be alert to how I can be a good guest. I can share stories, insights, and questions from my journey, and listen well. I am also used to a lot of quiet, and am content to be silent.
